Your memory might tell you the Mariners lost all of those games, but they are actually 5-5 there since 2022. However, this will be their first series at the K since 2019 without Ty France, which will be a disadvantage since he\u2019s the best visiting hitter in the history of Kauffman (min. 30 career PAs) with a wRC+ of 285. Not all is lost. Third on that list of 709 players is Julio Rod\u00edguez. Recall that the 2023 series featured two of the four games in which Julio set the MLB record for the most hits in a four-game span with 17, a record that had stood for so long that the prior owner of the record played for the Brooklyn Robins. Also of note, Edgar Martinez and Dan Wilson are both also in the top 25.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Half an hour after Michael Wacha throws out the first pitch, the Rangers and Astros will face off in Houston. The Astros won last night\u2019s game, though not without Yordan \u00c1lvarez spraining his ankle.

The Rainiers played earlier today, and Emerson hit a home run in his AAA debut. Geez. After his second-half promotion to Arkansas, he hit .282\/.360\/.430. That translates to a 133 wRC+, which is 24th in the Texas League among the 169 players with at least 100 PAs there this season. I never really know what to make of the park adjustment that goes into wRC+ for the Travs though, since it\u2019s a very difficult home park but is much more difficult for righties than for lefties (like Emerson). Even if you shave a little off that wRC+ to account for that, you\u2019ve still got to be impressed that he did this in his age-19 season.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p><h2 class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup\">This Day in Mariners History<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.lookoutlanding.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Mariners\u2019 recent history at Kauffman Stadium has been filled with wild back-and-forth games.
