| (MySportsbook) - After finally putting an end to a painfully-long losing streak on Tuesday, the Seattle Mariners will aim for back-to-back wins over the American League West champion Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim when the teams continue their series tonight at Safeco Field. Seattle stopped a string of 12 consecutive defeats, the club's longest slide since a franchise-record 14-game skid from September 2-18, 1992, with last night's 9-6 ousting of the Angels. The victory, at least temporarily, also delayed the |

| (MySportsbook) - The Seattle Mariners are mired in their longest losing streak in 16 years. A few more meetings with the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim may not help the team with the worst record in the majors turn things around. Seattle hopes to break a string of 11 straight defeats when the club returns home tonight to begin a four-game series with the American League West champion Angels.

| (MySportsbook) -- Even in a season filled with low points, the Seattle Mariners may have managed to finally hit rock bottom. The current owners of baseball's worst record will attempt to break out of a 10-game losing streak in this afternoon's last of three straight meetings with the Oakland Athletics from McAfee Coliseum. Oakland kept the Mariners' string of futility intact by rallying for four unanswered runs to post an 8-7 victory on Saturday. The winning tally came during the bottom of the eighth inning, |
