Not Closing The Game

At 80 minutes I mumbled 'countdown to the equalizer, 5 minutes' and I was only slightly off.

For my money, Soolsma is a closer. Bring him on late, let him slow the game down, keep possession in the corner. I understand him not being on the bench in Houston, but why tonight? Why the fuck is he not coming in and finishing this game?

Is there something I've missed re: his status? Or is he just not in Mariner's plans? Because he better GET into his plans. I am so pissed right now.
