Mariners stalemate Royals 8-8 in spring

The Seattle Mariners and Kansas City Royals played to an 8-8 tie in a Cactus League spring training game, marking the first time this spring fans were limited to radio and social media clips.

Seattle used ten pitchers and Kansas City used seven in the marathon affair, with the final dozen runs scoring after the fifth inning.

Mariners right-hander Bryan Woo made his spring debut, throwing 1.1 innings with 11 four-seamers and a changeup that struck out Kyle Isbel. Woo expressed a focus on sticking to his weekly work rather than trying new things in spring training.
