Mariners Take 3 In A Row From A's

 I had thought that it was a sweep and that would have been the headline, but I read that Oakland took the opening game.  Still, the Mariners took game 4 of the series, their 3rd win in a row.   That puts the team a game and half out of the wild card position.   

Now, it seems, people around town are talking "baseball" for the first time in years.  Remember, the Mariners have the longest playoff drought in major league professional sports.
