The Seattle Mariners moved to a half-game back from the Houston Astros for the third and final American League wild-card spot with a big win over their division rival on Tuesday.
The strike didn't phase Kirby too much, as he kept the inning scoreless before exiting ahead of the seventh. The TBS broadcast later showed a younger fan in a Mariners jersey being escorted out of the stands.
The Mariners took the lead in the third inning with a rally that scored runs on sacrifice flies from Josh Rojas and Julio Rodríguez, then broke the game open in the fifth with a three-run frame to take a 5-0 lead. The Astros put together a bases-loaded, no-out threat in the seventh, but only got one run out of it after Matt Brash came in and got three straight outs.
The Mariners have one game remaining against the Astros on Wednesday, then head to Texas for a pivotal four-game series against the Rangers. The Astros will end their season facing the Arizona Diamondbacks, another team fighting for a wild-card, in a three-game road series.
