SEATTLE — The Seattle Mariners kept dim playoff hopes alive Thursday night with aIn order for the Mariners to find a way to sneak into the postseason, they will need to win and get some help from around the league. That's why Seattle fans should be all in on backing the Arizona Diamondbacks in the season's final weekend, as they host the Houston Astros for a three-game series beginning Friday.
Astros-Diamondbacks will get underway about 30 minutes before the Mariners and Texas Rangers will face off in Seattle Friday night. One of the best pitchers in the National League will be on the mound for Arizona in Zac Gallen, who has a 17-8 record and a 3.49 earned run average in 2023. Arizona has incentive to play the Astros tough as well, with the Diamondbacks in a similar position to the M's in desperately trying to earn a Wild Card spot in the NL.
Simply put, Friday night's Mariners game at T-Mobile Park is one of the biggest regular-season games in recent memory. A win keeps the season alive, a loss makes it exponentially more difficult to qualify for the playoffs.
