Everything's Coming Up Mariners | Defector
"In the top of the sixth inning of Game 2 of the ALCS, FS1 ran a surreal segment of play-by-play broadcaster Joe Davis demonstrating how to carve up a turkey live on air, in honor of Canadian Thanksgiving, which took place that day. Bird carving had already established itself as the theme of the broadcast, as the Seattle Mariners were, at that point, already up 7-3 on the Toronto Blue Jays."
"Game 1 was highlighted by a gutsy Bryce Miller performance on short rest. Miller allowed a first-pitch home run by George Springer to open up the game, kicking off 27-pitch first inning, and then proceeded to shut down the Blue Jays through the sixth inning on just 76 pitches total. As the broadcast will inform you, the ethical Blue Jays do not strike out. In fact, they do it the least in all of baseball."
FS1 aired a live turkey-carving segment during Game 2 of the ALCS. The Seattle Mariners led the Toronto Blue Jays 7-3 at that point and left Toronto with a convincing 2-0 series lead. Bryan Woo remained unavailable after being left off the ALDS roster with pectoral inflammation, and the Mariners had recently exhausted high-leverage bullpen arms during a 15-inning game. Game 1 featured a gutsy Bryce Miller outing on short rest, allowing a first-pitch homer but shutting down the Blue Jays through six innings on 76 pitches. The Blue Jays strike out the least in baseball and ranked as the fourth-best regular-season offense by wRC+.
