Seattle Times Aaron Harang has never beaten the Los Angeles Angels in his lengthy career. During his latest attempt, the Seattle right-hander could barely even slow them down - and he still did better than his bullpen on a rocky night for the Mariners.

Mariners Insider | Tacoma News-Tribune The pummeling continued for the Seattle Mariners at Angels Stadium, and not in a good way. But, hey, at least the showers weren’t leaking sewage in the 47-year-old stadium. Still, the 11-3 loss the Mariners endured against the Los Angeles Angels on Monday night was just as big of a stinker as Oakland Coliseum’s sewage system. Seattle pitchers were battered for 21 hits, including starter Aaron Harang getting knocked around for 12 of them. But only four of the Angels runs can be attributed to Harang. For all of his hits surrendered in his five innings of work, Harang still … Read more »
Seattle Mariners June 17, 2013U.S.S. Mariner Aaron Harang vs. Jason Vargas, 7:10pm The deal made perfect sense when it happened, and with the benefit of a half-season’s hindsight, it looks like one of the fairly rare cases wherein both teams ‘win.’ The Angels rotation had a FIP of 4.33, good for 21st in the league – and that was *despite* getting [...]-- This post came from: U.S.S.

Halos Heaven To be specific, the Angels beat up Aaron Harang just like they did the last time. Harang gave out four runs with twelve hits in five innings. As for Jason Vargas, he struck out nine over seven innings and let up only two runs. Albert Pujols went 4-for-5 with three singles and a double. Josh Hamilton launched a ball to center field but also struck out twice. Can't have it all, can you. Howie Kendrick's average remains at .335 after getting one hit in three at bats. The bats were swinging as eleven Angels had hits. Tomorrow's game is at 7:05pm on FOX Sports West and Root Sports. Unfort...

Halos Heaven June 17 7:05pm, June 18 7:05pm, June 19 7:05, June 20 7:05pm Another week, another Angels series. Over the weekend we were treated to a series win against the Yankees -- almost taking out the broomsticks for the final game. Now Mike Scioscia will look for his Halos to take this four game set against the Seattle Mariners. Luckily, Scioscia will get an edge in Monday's game. Aaron Harang will be on the hill for the M's. Last time out against the Angels, on May 21, Harang didn't escape the fourth inning. He let up seven runs through nine hits. On the other side of the mound will be Jason ...
Los Angeles Angels June 16, 2013Tacoma News-Tribune Aaron Harang strikes out 10 Astros, gives up 2 hits in second complete-game gem in past 21/2 weeks | If Aaron Harang throwing the first complete-game shutout of the Seattle Mariners’ season seemed unlikely, what were the odds that he also would throw the team’s second complete-game shutout?
Seattle Mariners June 12, 2013Seattle Times Aaron Harang pitched a two-hitter for his second shoutout of the season, leading the Seattle Mariners to a 4-0 victory over the Houston Astros on Tuesday night.

Lookout Landing Source: FanGraphs Aaron Harang recorded his second complete game shutout of the season for the Seattle Mariners tonight at Safeco Field. Sure, they've come against the San Diego Padres and tonight's opponent -- the Houston Astros -- but he's been lousy against the Twins and Pirates; two teams ranked amongst the bottom 10 in wRC+ in baseball. The oft repeated joke is that the Mariners make bad pitchers look like Cy Young. Well, tonight the Astros whiffed against Harang 10 times, gathered nary a walk and could only muster two hits -- one of which was gained weakly in the infield. Why tha...
Seattle Mariners June 11, 2013Houston Chronicle The Astros had no answer for Aaron Harang Tuesday night in Seattle.
Houston Astros June 11, 2013Houston Chronicle SEATTLE – The frustration was quite evident late Tuesday night inside the spiraling Astros’ clubhouse after Mariners journeyman Aaron Harang threw a two-hit shutout against them. The defensive performance was disheartening yet again, and the offense was practically non-existent. Amid the gloom of yet another six-game losing streak, however, Astros ace righthander Bud Norris stood apart as a reason for hope. Whether as an example for his younger teammates or as a testament of his value to teams looking to acquire him at the trade deadline, Norris was impressive through seven strong innings whil...
Houston Astros June 11, 2013Houston Chronicle Box score SEATTLE – Only one start after he failed to get out of the third inning, journeyman Mariners righthander Aaron Harang looked like a Cy Young candidate Tuesday night against the Astros. Harang threw a two-hit shutout to win 4-0 at Safeco Field, extending the Astros’ losing streak to a season high-tying six games. Astros righthander Bud Norris was solid while holding the Mariners to three runs on five hits and one walk with one wild pitch and one home run over seven innings, but it wasn’t enough. Harang (3-6) made drastic improvements after giving up six runs over 2 1/3 innings against...
Houston Astros June 11, 2013Mariners Blog | Seattle Times If you'd have guessed that the shutout leaders in major-league baseball on June 11, all with two, would be Justin Masterson, Bartolo Colon, Adam Wainwright and...Aaron Harang, well, you'd be a genius. Felix Hernandez doesn't have a complete-game shutout since his perfect game on Aug. 15, 2012 -- a span off 22 starts -- while Harang now has two in his last four starts. Yeah, baseball is a funny game. Sure, it helps that he was facing a Houston team that has now lost six in a row -- their fourth six-game losing streak of the season -- and now has been shut out seven times, tops in the Ame...

Mariners Insider | Tacoma News-Tribune If Aaron Harang throwing the first complete game shutout of the Mariners season seemed unlikely, what were the odds that he would do it again? They weren’t quite as long as purchasing a winning Powerball ticket or even the worst longshot in any of the three Triple Crown races. But after his last outing – a forgettable 2 1/3 innings outing against the Yankees where he gave up six run on eight hits – it seemed unlikely that Harang could go out and throw nine scoreless innings against any team, even the hapless Houston Astros. But that’s exactly what the … Read more »
Seattle Mariners June 11, 2013U.S.S. Mariner Aaron Harang vs. Bud Norris, 7:10pm Bud Norris was once a big-time (er, semi-big time) strikeout artist. A fastball/slider pitcher who mixes in a few change-ups to lefties, Norris racked up whiffs with his sharp slider, but yielded a fair number of homers-allowed. This year, his strikeouts are down markedly (like, 21-24% to 15%). But [...]-- This post came from: U.S.S. Mariner, and is copyright by the authors.

Last night, it was Jeremy Bonderman’s turn, in what would’ve been the most unlikely pitching line of the year had Aaron Harang not thrown a complete game shutout recently.
