The Seattle Mariners beat the Chicago White Sox 10-0 on Friday behind an eight-run first inning and the ninth consecutive quality start for George Kirby.
The Seattle Mariners off-the-field moves this week sparked some excitement among the team's fan base. They traded for Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Randy Arozarena on Thursday and right-handed reliever Yimi Garcia on Friday and both of them are expected to report to the team on Saturday.
"A complete game," Mariners manager Scott Servais said in a postgame interview Friday. "Great game for our offense tonight. We had been struggling in the worst way. And Vosler — huge hit there in the first inning then everything started to flow with two outs and the home runs late in that inning. Really happy for our guys to jump out the way we did today."
George Kirby, who preserved the shutout, recorded his ninth consecutive quality start on Friday. He threw seven innings and struck out seven batters. He walked one and let up six hits. He's the first Seattle pitcher to record nine consecutive quality starts since James Paxton did it from June 27-Aug. 10, 2017, according to Mariners PR.
