Seattle, WA (Sports Network) - Casper Wells hit a three-run home run and drove
in five as the Seattle Mariners capped the regular season with a resounding
12-0 win over the LA Angels of Anaheim.
Jesus Montero drove in three runs as he went 2-for-4 with two runs scored
while Carlos Triunfel had two RBI for the Mariners (75-87), who won their
final two games of the season but finished last in the AL West for a third
straight year.
Blake Beavan (11-11) was able to move to .500 for the 2012 campaign thanks to
an eight-inning performance that saw him give up seven hits and one walk.
Mike Trout capped his phenomenal rookie season with a 2-for-3 game, including
a double for the Angels (89-73), who finished third in the AL West and missed
out on the playoffs for a third straight year.
Jered Weaver (20-5) pitched just one inning and gave up two runs to finish his
season. He had a four-game winning streak snapped, but thanks to the 20-win
campaign and a 2.81 earned-run average, he will be in contention for the AL Cy
Young award just one year after finishing second to Detroit's Justin
Verlander.
