While the Texas Rangers just finished enjoying a nice 12-game winning streak, the Seattle Mariners are on the complete other side of the spectrum.

The Mariners lost their 11th straight game Wednesday night at the hands of the Toronto Blue Jays by a score of 11-6, their 15th loss in 20 games. This marks their longest skid since back in 2008 when they dropped 12 consecutive games… which isn’t looking like it’s going to be the record.

Things were looking up right away in the first inning when the M’s loaded the bases off Brandon Morrow with no one out, but of course, failed to score. They’ve managed five runs in back-to-back games now for the first time since June 2 and 3 – both of which they won against the Tampa Bay Rays – but it apparently wasn’t enough against the Jays.
