Seattle Mariners powered by Latino force
Tagged: mariners, Seattle, WashingtonPosted on: July 12th, 2007“It all began on opening day.
Felix Hernandez turned in the best pitching performance by a Mariner in an opener in 12 years. Richie Sexson homered on his second opening day in three as a Mariner. And one of the largest crowds for a first game at Safeco Field witnessed the 4-0 win over the rival Oakland Athletics.
Overlooked perhaps, but more historic, was the lineup card posted on April 2. Seattle fielded a group of starters that included seven Latinos, the most the franchise has put on the field to open a season.”
