"The Seattle Mariners found a way to silence the Toronto Blue Jays' bats that were scorching hot in the ALDS. That solution was Bryce Miller, who gave up a lead-off home run to George Springer on the first pitch of the game, but then only gave up one more hit and three walks through six innings. The Blue Jays now find themselves trailing in a series."
"Bassitt had an up-and-down season, finishing 11-9 with a 3.96 ERA and a 177:52 strikeout-to-walk ratio over 170.1 innings. He struggled in May and June with ERAs of 5.06 and 5.46. But he bounced back for a strong finish and in September, over 20.1 innings, he posted a 2.66 ERA, an 18:8 strikeout-to-walk ratio, and held batters to a .234 average."
"in 16 games this season, the righty has posted a 5.47 ERA, a 66:25 strikeout-to-walk ratio, and allowed hitters to hit .289 off him. However, his last start in Seattle was on April 9, 2024, where he threw 6.2 innings, struck out eight, allowed five hits, and the only run off him came from a Dominic Canzone solo home run."
The Mariners shutdown of the Blue Jays came via Bryce Miller, who yielded an immediate homer to George Springer then allowed only one more hit and three walks through six innings, leaving Toronto trailing in the series. John Schneider announced Trey Yesavage will start Game 2 and Shane Bieber Game 3, with Chris Bassitt currently in the bullpen and Max Scherzer likelier for Game 4 or a long relief role. Bassitt finished 11-9 with a 3.96 ERA, rebounded in September with a 2.66 ERA over 20.1 innings, but struggled on the road with a 5.47 ERA in 16 games.
