Result:
LOSS

No way Seattle should be laying this kind of wood. Jamie Moyer has a nice 3.59 home ERA. But, he's still just 6-10 on the season including a losing 4-5 mark at home. Over his last three starts he's been pounded by Toronto and Boston posting a 7.47 ERA. Tim Corcoran in contrast has a 3.54 ERA (3.86 on the road) and winning 4-2 record. Tampa has the momentum having won three of their last four while Seattle las lost three straight and four of five. The Mariners are a pitiful 2-8 this season as ahome favorite of -160 to -175 and they are 13-26 vs. teams with losing records. They score just 4.6 per game at home on the season and they're averaging 4.1 per game over their last seven. Tampa Bay certainly is no powerhouse but they are getting 4.7 per game over their last seven and they like facing lefties against whom they score 5.2 per game. Good opportunity on the dog here.
