"We play with passion, we play hard," McLaren said via conference call. "That's why it didn't add up. If these guys didn't play hard and they didn't prepare, I could understand some things. We do a lot of things right, but when it's all said and done, we don't win." McLaren was shown the door with the Mariners last in |
