Seattle Mariners Fans and Personalities React to Back-Breaking Sunday Loss on "X"
The Seattle Mariners lost on Sunday to the Los Angeles Angels, the latest indignity against the worst team in the American League West.
Seattle lost the season series 8-5 against the Angels, including dropping eight of their last 10 games against the division rivals.
With this loss, the M's are now 69-68 on the season. They are 6.0 games back in the American League West and 5.5 games back in the wild card, and while there is still technically a chance at postseason baseball, no one seems to believe it's possible.
After the game on Sunday, some of your favorite M's personalities took to "X" to express their disappointment and displeasure.
Per Joe Doyle of "Over Slot"
Seattle loses 8 of their last 9 contests against the 56-80 Los Angeles Angels.
6 back of Houston.
If there was ever a nail in the coffin.

Per @MarinerMuse
69-68. No sense in angrily scoreboard watching when they can barely stay above .500.

Per Mike Lefko of Seattle Sports 710:
Six one-run losses this season to the Angels. That hurts
