Indians can't keep pace with Mariners

Former'Bows catcher Freitas called up by Seattle Mariners

Edwin Encarnacion went deep twice for the Indians, his 29th career multihomer game. Seattle are 2-6 in their last 8 home games and Seattle are 5-11 in their last 16 overall and Seattle are 5-11 in their last 16 games on grass. The home run to Haniger were the first two runs given up by Olson in a little over a year with the Indians. After taking two pitches out of the strike zone from Mariners starter Mike Leake, Encarnacion sat on a cut fastball and blasted it over the scoreboard in the left-field stands.

Edwin Diaz pitched the ninth for his second save. Paxton gave up six earned runs and walked four.

The Mariners have been 2-1 through their first three games of a season as recently as 2016, but there seemed to be some extra enthusiasm coming from their series win over the Cleveland Indians.

After getting the first two batters out with a strikeout and fly out, Bauer worked his way into and out of a jam in the bottom of the third inning. Then, Haniger walked to load the bases.

Three batters later, third baseman Kyle Seager doubled to right field and brought in Segura for the game-tying run. But for the anticipation of the season and what we had in store as at team, it's not how you want to get off to a start.

Mariners: Nelson Cruz twisted his right ankle Saturday slipping on the dugout steps after a home run.

"Heck of a series by our guys", manager Scott Servais said after the Mariners' 5-4 victory in the Sunday afternoon rubber game. "If it's going to be longer than three or four days, we'll have to make a roster decision. But right now, we're keeping our fingers crossed that he can bounce back".

The Seattle Mariners have placed catcher Mike Zunino on the 10-day disabled list with a left oblique strain.

Japanese two-way player Shohei Ohtani will make his pitching debut for the Los Angeles Angels on Sunday against the Oakland Athletics. Leake was 3-1 with a 2.53 ERA in five starts after being acquired by Seattle late last season.
