The Seattle Mariners are Kryptonite for Yu Darvish
Yu Darvish suffered through his worst outing of the year on Monday night against the Seattle Mariners in Safeco Field. This is unusual, because a) Darvish has been really good, b) the Mariners offense is pretty lousy, and c) Safeco Field is a dream park for pitchers.

Darvish turns in another bee-yu-tiful start
