Bryan Woo allows four homers in rough outing vs Cardinals
Mariners starter Bryan Woo allowed four home runs in three innings against the St. Louis Cardinals, including blasts by JJ Wetherholt, Pedro Pagés, and Nathan Church. Wetherholt's homer registered a 108.7 mph exit velocity with a 29-degree launch and an estimated 397 feet, Nathan Church's long ball came off a 109.8 mph exit velocity at a 19-degree launch estimated 396 feet, and Pedro Pagés' two-run shot registered 105.1 mph off a 96.0 mph sinker. The short outing squandered Seattle's early run support, puts added strain on the Mariners' bullpen and rotation, and continues a concerning pattern as this is the third time in Woo's career he has given up four homers, all on the road.
