When you consider that this team isn't driving the ball much, it's kind of amazing to me that this is still the case...but according to B-Ref the Mariners have seen 6349 pitches and throw 6012. I went and looked up the same hustle board for the other three AL West teams: TEX: 6332 seen / 6462 thrown OAK: 6379 seen / 6303 thrown LAA: 6743 seen / 6787 thrown Despite the Mariners' anemic offense, they're battling harder and grinding at bats better than their opposition and their pitching staff is more efficient than anyone else in the AL (they're first in the AL in pitches per game)
