Darren Brown showed up to Safeco a bit bleary eyed and not knowing what to expect for his first game as interim manager. Little did he know that in addition to getting his first win as a big league manager, he'd also witness the first Mariners triple play in 15 years. While the offense wasn't overpowering, the pitching was spectacular as was the defense. Doug Fister pitched his way through 6 innings and picked up his first win in more than a couple of months. League and White each held down for an inning for some holds and David Aardsma picked up save 21. All in all, it was a great night that ended in a beer shower for the new manager, and unfortunately for Wak, one that helped forget the old.
PLAYER OF THE GAME:
Doug Fister, getting back on track. Let's see those quality starts rack up!
