Mariners Ace Woo Sidelined as Team Struggles in ALCS

The Seattle Mariners' playoff hopes are teetering as their pitching staff has been shelled in the American League Championship Series. The team had an early command of the series, but consecutive home losses to the Toronto Blue Jays by a combined score of 21-6 have evened the series at 2-2.

The Mariners' ace, Bryan Woo, says he feels good and is ready to go after missing time due to pectoral inflammation. Woo, who had a 15-7 record with a 2.94 ERA and 198 strikeouts in the regular season, has been on the playoff roster but has not pitched since Sept. 19.

Despite Woo's availability, manager Dan Wilson has opted to start Bryce Miller, who had a strong outing in Game 1, in the pivotal Game 5 on Friday. Woo has been seen warming up in the bullpen but has not taken the mound, even as the Mariners' other starters have struggled.
