C.J. Wilson couldn't keep up in a pitcher's duel with Felix Hernandez on Wednesday, giving up three runs over 7 2/3 innings in a 3-1 loss to the Mariners. Wilson struck out five and walked two. Both he and his team entered this evening red hot, Wilson having yielded just one run and nine hits over 15 1/3 frames in two straight wins. He'd gone 5-1 with a 2.03 ERA over his last six starts at Safeco Field, but there wasn't much he could do against King Felix with his good stuff tonight. The veteran left-hander has a nice fantasy matchup in Houston next week.
