Athletics vs Mariners Preview
The Athletics will send JP Sears to the mound against the Mariners. Sears, a left-handed pitcher, had mixed results in spring training. His last outing against the White Sox saw him pitch three innings, allowing two runs on four hits.

Both pitchers will look to set the tone for their teams in this early season game.
