Houston Astros vs Seattle Mariners

Cal Raleigh is struggling to throw out runners this year, but why? When in Chicago covering the Mariners and the White Sox this week, I attempted to ask some questions about the issues at hand.
Logan Evans will start for the Seattle Mariners on Wednesday at Rate Field against Miguel Vargas and the Chicago White Sox. First pitch is at 2:10 p.m. ET for the final game of a three-game series.
After a lengthy rain delay to start the game, the Mariners are held to just four hits and fall to the White Sox 1-0 on a chilly night in Chicago, snapping a four-game win streak.
The Mariners have had a majority of their success on the road this season and continued that trend with their latest series win.
Right-hander Bryan Abreu is integral to a Houston bullpen that has excelled this season, but the fact that his two hiccups thus far have come against the Seattle Mariners is noteworthy.
Leody Taveras hit a two-run homer in the eighth inning to put Seattle ahead and the Mariners topped the Chicago White Sox 6-5 for their fifth win in six games.
The lone run came off the bat of Chicago right fielder Joshua Palacios, who drove in it in via a RBI single. This game was also highlighted by the valiant pitching performance of the newly-signed pitcher Adrian Houser.

Trying to even up the score in the sixth inning on Friday night, Cal Raleigh was thrown out by a preposterous amount. Here's a further look at the play.
