As predicted, the Los Angeles Dodgers won easily against the Seattle Mariners in Game 1. Gavin Stone rocked the Mariners with 10 strikeouts, setting a new record for himself. Stone had seven scoreless innings and won the player of the game award.

Max Muncy and Gavin Lux went deep from the plate to help their team win. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts will send Walker Buehler to the mound as their starter in Game 2. Buehler's injuries cost him this season, but the veteran pitcher looks forward to a promising return. Buelher has a terrible 6.02 ERA with a 1-4 record.

Bryan Woo had a decent outing for the Mariners with his performance. However, he did not receive support from the plate. Woo surrendered two earned runs with five strikeouts in 6.1 innings pitched. The Mariners' offense failed against Stone and their opponents' bullpen.

Bryce Miller will be sent to the mound in Game 2 against Buehler. Miller's performance has been great for the Mariners, especially with his strong 3.29 ERA. The talented pitcher has a 9-7 record. Despite Miller on the mound, the Mariners will need enough support from the plate to help their team win. The M's are now two games ahead of the .500 mark.

Dodgers vs. Mariners Prediction

The Mariners are not as strong as their opponents, especially with their offense scoring just 496 runs. However, they have a better team ERA than the Dodgers. The Mariners are ranked at No. 1, with the best ERA in the league at 3.48, while their opponents are ranked at No. 7 with a 3.75 ERA.

The Boys in Blue have a better offensive team. With top stars like Mookie Betts and Muncy back in the lineup, they seem to be preparing for the postseason. Yoshinobu Yamamoto is also expected to return before the postseason. The Dodgers squad has a better shot at winning this game against the Mariners.
