Lineups: Mariners’ lefties get a shot vs Rangers ace Yu Darvish

Aug 29, 2016, 2:44 PM

The good news is that the Mariners won’t be facing another tough left-hander on Monday night. The bad news is that they’re facing three-time All-Star Yu Darvish.

The Mariners have lefty swinging Seth Smith and Adam Lind in the lineup along with switch hitter Shawn O’Malley to takes on the Rangers’ ace in Monday’s series opener, which will air live at 5:05 on 710 ESPN Seattle. The pregame show begins at 4.

On the mound for Seattle will be Darvish’s Japanese countrymate Hisashi Iwakuma, who has thrown a quality start in seven of his last nine outings.
