Alek Manoah said Thursday that pressure is "something you put in your tires." His tires must be low.

The Seattle Mariners jumped out to a 3-0 lead in the first inning off the Toronto Blue Jays’ ace and never looked back in their win.

Rookie phenom Julio Rodriguez led the game off getting hit by a pitch. Two batters later, Eugenio Suarez’s RBI double gave the Mariners the early 1-0 lead. The next batter, Cal Raleigh, the man who sent the Mariners to the postseason with a walk-off home run, belted a two-run blast.

That's all Luis Castillo needed.

Castillo has been everything the Mariners could have hoped for since they acquired him at the trade deadline, and he continued to show why he’s now their ace.

He tossed 108 pitches in 7⅓ scoreless innings, allowing just six hits without walking a batter while striking out five. He only faced two batters while a runner was in scoring position.

Andres Munoz was the first man out of Seattle's bullpen, and it turned out he'd be the only man they needed to close the door. He retired all but one batter he faced to nail down the victory.
