SEATTLE - At this point in the season when things should be coming together, there is a sense that the Houston Astros are falling apart. The Astros went down to their sixth straight defeat Tuesday night as Seattle Mariners right-hander Aaron Harang matched his career low in yielding just two hits in a complete-game 4-0 shutout victory. Harang (3-6) had a season-high 10 strikeouts - the 12th time in his career with 10-or-more, and no walks. It was his 15th career complete game and eighth shutout. "Its kind of frustrating right now," said starter Bud Norris, who worked seven innings, allowing five hits and three runs. "Weve been through a slump before, but this one is really kind of getting to us. "The guys have been going out there, playing hard and thats not the problem. ... We need to keep picking up both sides of the ball and play as a unit - a 25-man roster have to pick everyone up." While the offence struggled, so did the defence. Spotty defence played a role in both the Mariners first two runs. In the first, Endy Chavez opened with a double into the right-field corner and advanced to third when shortstop Ronny Cedeno missed the relay. After two outs, Chavez scored on Norris wild pitch, on a 1-2 pitch to Ibanez. Then in the second inning it happened again. Nick Franklin opened with a double to right and right-fielder Trevor Crowes throw to second was wide of Cedeno for another error. The Astros have committed a major league-high 49 errors. Franklin advanced to third and scored on Michael Saunders sacrifice fly to deep left. "They were just bad throws," said Crowe, who threw both balls in from right field. "The first one I had a chance. The second one you just have to slow down and make a better throw. "Its very unfortunate, the way Bud pitched tonight." Houston has committed a major league high 49 errors. The Mariners have eight shutouts this season, tied with Cleveland for the most in the American League. The Astros have been shut out a league-high seven times. "He attacked the zone," Astros manager Bo Porter said of Harang. "I dont think it wasnt anything we werent prepared for; it just seemed like he missed barrels and changed speeds when he needed to." "When a team is going through a bit of a funk and you have that happening as an offence, sometimes guys get frustrated and try to do too much," Crowe said. "We may be going through a bit of that right now." Mariners manager Eric Wedge said it was the command of his fastball that made Harang so effective against the Astros. "He was fantastic," Wedge said. "When he commands his fastball and it rides like it was tonight, and hes able to leverage it downhill and climb when he wants to, hes real good. When he does that his secondary stuff is locked in, too, like it was tonight. Harang allowed a two-out infield single to deep short by J.D. Martinez in the second inning. He then retired 16 of the next 17 batters, as the only Astro to reach during that span was Brandon Barnes on a sixth-inning error. Martinez also collected the other hit, an inning-opening single to left in the seventh. He never advanced past first. Raul Ibanez hit his team-leading 13th home run - his second in as many nights - in the sixth inning. It was his 74th career home run at Safeco Field, the most by any player. Norris (5-6), who walked just one and struck out six, was not 100 per cent. He was sent home Monday because of cold-like symptoms and wasnt much improved by game time Tuesday. Porter said for Norris to step up under those conditions "was outstanding." "I appreciate the compliment but Im still pretty frustrated with the result unfortunately," Norris said. "We need to pick it up. "You have to go out there every fifth day. That is my job. I understand Im not going to feel 100 per cent every start, but to go out there and do battle for my team is what Ive always played the game to do." The Mariners added a run in the eighth off Wesley Wright. Chavez opened with a double and scored on Kyle Seagers one-out single to right. NOTES: The Mariners had the rare occurrence of having their 2012 first-round draft choice and their 2013 first-rounder on their home field before the game. C Mike Zunino, last years third overall selection, was called up before the game. He is the first position player to reach the majors. The clubs top pick this year, 12th overall, 3B D.J. Peterson, was invited in along with a half-dozen other draftees. ... Astros LF J.D. Martinez had a pair of singles in his three at-bats to give him at least one hit in 13 of his past 15 games. Hes hitting .322 during that span. ... Jose Altuves 11-game hit streak ended. Wholesale Running Shoes For Sale .

Wholesale Running Shoes Uk GLENDALE, Ariz. -- Coach Bruce Arians has accomplished a lot in his three seasons with the Cardinals.Beating Seattle in Arizona isnt one of them.That 0-3 record at home against the Seahawks was a major topic as the Cardinals prepared for the Sunday night matchup of two teams that have dominated the NFC West in recent years.Cornerback Patrick Peterson brought it up in the locker room moments after Arizonas 28-3 victory over the New York Jets on Monday night.The Cardinals have won two of their past three at Seattle, but the Seahawks have dominated the past three in Arizona by a combined score of 105-34.Asked if theres a common thread through those losses, Arians was characteristically blunt.Yeah, he said. They beat the (heck) out of us.There were some mitigating circumstances. The Cardinals were down to Ryan Lindley in a 35-6 loss late in the 2014 season. And Arizona already had clinched the No. 2 playoff berth before a 36-6 loss to Seattle last season.But another Seahawks victory this season would have a significant impact for both teams. Seattle would improve to 5-1, Arizona would drop to 3-4. A Cardinals win, on the other hand, would put Arizona just a half-game behind Seattle.This is a classic Western division matchup, Seahawks coach Pete Carroll said. We love it. Theyre a great team and they bring out the best in us.But Carroll scoffs at the suggestion that a Seattle victory would lock up the NFC West.Thats crazy to think that, he said. Thats not how it is. Its just one game, one week, and then theres a bunch of other games after that. Im not even going to answer that one.Here are some things to consider when the Seahawks come to Arizona.PALMERS HEALTH: Arizona quarterback Carson Palmer left late in the Jets game with a strained hamstring. He didnt practice Wednesday in what Arians told reporters was a scheduled day off. But the injury report listed a hamstring injury and he was listed as limited in practice on Thursday.After the Jets game, Palmer shrugged off the problem as simply a cramp.Palmer returned against New York after missing Arizonas victory over San Francisco because of a concussion.RUNNING NOWHERE: The Seahawks run game has not been up to Seattle standards.The Seahawks are averaging just 88.8 yards per game rushing. Thats 22nd in the NFL, but they are 30th in the league averaging a mere 3.2 yards per attempt.One of the big reasons is the lack of yards on the ground ffrom quarterback Russell Wilson.dddddddddddd Slowed by ankle and knee injuries, the Seahawks QB has just 35 yards rushing and no run longer than 9 yards.Seattle is hoping for a breakout against the Cardinals and past games show its possible. The Seahawks had 145 yards rushing in a Week 17 win at Arizona last season and two years ago rushed for 267 yards against the Cardinals, the ninth-most in franchise history.RUNNING EVERYWHERE: Arizona has relied heavily on the running game in consecutive victories over the 49ers and Jets. The Cardinals topped 170 yards rushing in consecutive games for the first time since 1988.David Johnson rushed for a combined 268 yards in the two games. With three scores against the Jets, the second-year running back leads the NFL in touchdowns with eight.But he will meet a fierce Seattle defense thats ranked No. 1 in the NFL (283.6 yards per game) and is third in rushing defense (74.6 yards per game).From the linebackers to the defensive line, its probably the best seven in football, Arizona offensive coordinator Harold Goodwin said.CARDINALS SACKS: Arizona is tied for third in the NFL with 19 sacks and the Cardinals have spread them around among seven players.Second-year outside linebacker Markus Golden leads the team with six. With a sack on Sunday night, he would join Simeon Rice (1999) and Freddie Joe Nunn (1988) as the only Cardinals with a sack in each of his first seven games of a season.SHOUTING SHERMAN: Richard Sherman insists he wouldnt change how he handled a sideline tirade in last weeks win over Atlanta.The Seahawks said there will be no carry-over from Shermans rant that took numerous players to calm down the standout cornerback.Sherman was livid about a blown coverage that allowed Julio Jones to run free for a 36-yard touchdown. Sherman erupted on the sideline, first at defensive coordinator Kris Richard and then at teammates.Seattle was able to recover, shutting out Atlanta in the fourth quarter and rallying for the victory.You go through that adversity so much as a team, as a family, you can reconcile it very quickly and get back to your purpose, wide receiver Doug Baldwin said.---AP Sports Writer Tim Booth in Seattle contributed to this report.---AP NFL websites: http://pro32.ap.org and http://twitter.com/AP-NFL ' ' '
