SEATTLE -- For a change, center fielder Byron Buxton got a bit of good news when he showed up to Safeco Field on Sunday morning.
Buxton was sore the day after crashing full-speed into the right-center-field wall going after Nelson Cruz's two-run home run in the sixth inning of the Mariners' 4-3 victory on Saturday night.
Buxton also had a sore elbow, and a welt over his left eye. But he was well enough to slide back in the Twins' starting lineup for the series finale Sunday.
