Mariners regulars subdued by Wade LeBlanc but a sloppy late appearance by Kevin Jepsen opens the floodgates
The Angels sat their regulars after clinching the West. The assumption was that Felix Hernandez would dominate the lineup primarily composed of players who saw more time in AAA Salt Lake than in Major League Anaheim. That proved true. But minor league journeyman Wade LeBlanc dominated the major league Mariners. In fact, the game was blown by the Halos big league bullpen in the eighth when Kevin Jepsen got two quick outs but could not put it away, flummoxed a pinch runner, intentionally walked a guy to set up a force out and then suffered the indignity of a three run home run.
