GAME: Athletics (77-60, 2nd, AL West, – 4.5 GB) at Mariners (67-72, 4th, AL West, – 15.5 GB). GAME #: 140. SERIES: 2nd of 3 games. MEETING: 15th (series tied 7-7). WHEN: Saturday, 6:10 p.m., Safeco Field. PROBABLE PITCHERS: LHP Brett Anderson (Oakland, 3-0, 0.90) vs. RHP Hisashi Iwakuma (Seattle, 6-3, 3.14). STREAKS: Mariners L 1; Athletics W 1. TV: ROOT Sports, MLB TV. RADIO: ESPN 710-AM (Seattle), Mariners Radio Network
All evidence suggests that a pitcher’s duel is likely when the Mariners (67-72), a 6-1 loser to Oakland Friday, and the Athletics hook up for the second of their three-game series.
Seattle’s Hisashi Iwakuma is 5-1, 1.59 ERA in his past eight starts and has allowed just one earned run in his past four appearances. He is coming off 7.2 scoreless innings Sunday against the Angels, in which he outdueled Cy Young candidate Jered Weaver.
“That might have been the best stuff we’ve seen him have,” manager Eric Wedge said after Iwakuma’s 2-1 win. “He’s had some other real good games, but I think when you talk about that lineup and how aggressive he was and how he used all of his pitches, you just can’t say enough about the performance he gave us.”
Nor can the Athletics say enough about Brett Anderson, who will be making his fourth start since returning from Tommy John surgery. In his first three, Anderson is 3-0 with an 0.90 ERA. A closer look:
MARINERS: RHP Hisashi Iwakuma (6-3, 3.14 ERA, 1.25 WHIP)
The 31-year-old Iwakuma, in his first major league season, makes his 12th start and first against the Athletics (he made a relief appearance June 27). Iwakuma, who started the season as a reliever and then stretched out to become a starter during a minor league assignment, has won his last four decisions and five of his last six and is coming off a 2-1 win over the Los Angeles Angels Sept. 2 at Safeco Field.
A native of Tokyo, the 6-3, 190-pound Iwakuma signed with the Mariners as a free agent Jan. 5, following an 11-year career in his native country. Iwakuma pitched for Osaka Kintetsu from 2001-04, and for Rakuten from 2005-11. His record was 107-69, 3.25 ERA.
In 2004, Iwakuma started out 12-0 en route to a 15-2 record and 3.45 ERA. He had his only 20-win season in 2008 when he went 21-4, 1.87 ERA in 28 starts. Iwakuma won Japans equivalent of the Cy Young award.
In 2008, Iwakuma was named the Pacific League Most Valuable Player and also named an NPB All-Star.
Iwakuma played in the 2004 Olympics and in the 2009 World Baseball Classic, where he won a gold medal.
Iwakuma has pitched at least 5.0 innings in all nine of his starts and has worked at least 7.0 in two of his past three. He also has two saves, May 30 at Texas and June 2 at Chicago.
Iwakuma continues to allow plenty of baserunners, but is proving to be a master at getting out of jams. The Mariners have won five of the right-handers past seven starts. Iwakuma has allowed just one earned run in his last four outings.
