Mariner was led to victory by Max Gonzalez, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Thursday. Gonzalez was dynamite, tossing four innings while giving up just one earned run off six hits (he also didn't allow any walks). He has been consistent recently: he hasn't given up a single walk in five consecutive pitching appearances.
Gonzalez's strong effort led Mariner over Ida Baker and he'll get a chance to do so again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Mariner is 8-2 against Ida Baker going back to March of 2020, a lead they'll look to extend.
