Seattle reliever Mark Lowe cools down after allowing three runs in the seventh inning.

Jeanie thinks she's a sports jinx. Perhaps she watched the M's misery last night? http://www.spokesman.com/stories/2009/sep/16/sox-pummel-ms-bullpen/

My favorite line from the above article: "For six innings,” said manager Don Wakamatsu, “I thought we played a good game.” But they play nine these days, and the Mariners let this one get away from them late.

Sportswriters excell at snark.
