The Seattle Mariners<\/a> won the series against the Texas Rangers<\/a> on Sunday, thanks to a masterful pitching performance by right-hander Bryan Woo. Woo gave the Mariners seven strong innings, allowing two earned runs, a walk, and striking out six.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Despite pitching like an ace, Woo wasn\u2019t happy about letting up the two runs, which came in his final inning of work in the 5-2 victory over the Rangers.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Bryan Woo didn\u2019t like how he ended his outing in the Seattle Mariners win over the Texas Rangers<\/p>\n

\u201cIt’s just the concept of keeping teams down when they’re down,\u201d Woo said to\u00a0MLB.com\u2019s Daniel Kramer<\/a>. \u201cNot giving them any life when we got a lead, and I’m going out for whatever it is later in the game — not letting them have any momentum. Not letting them breathe in any way.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cYou give up the two there, and then it’s like, the at-bats for the next inning for Gabe are just more stressful,\u201d Woo said. \u201cAnd there’s no need for that if I just do my job. So, yeah, I’m still beating myself up over it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Woo has done well to suppress other teams, allowing eight earned runs in 32.0 innings, while not allowing a home run against him. The All-Star right-hander has also done well not to walk batters, with six on the season, and has a 4.9% walk rate.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Woo has emerged as one of the top arms in the American League, but Major League Baseball as well. According to Kramer, since last season, Woo is tied with two-time Cy Young Award winner, left-hander Tarik Skubal, and runner-up to the National League Cy Young Award last season, left-hander Cristopher Sanchez, for the most quality starts (25).\u00a0<\/p>\n

Despite Woo\u2019s criticism of himself, he is pitching like an ace. Given how he has been pitching, Woo could expect another invitation to join the All-Star game in Philadelphia this summer. Woo is 1-2 with a 2.25 ERA.\u00a0<\/p>\n
