ARLINGTON, Texas — About a half hour after the Mariners had pulled out a marathon 12-inning victory over the Rangers on Monday night, manager Scott Servais maneuvered his way through the visitor’s clubhouse of Globe Life Park to the locker of his starting shortstop.
Jean Segura was there dressing quickly to catch a bus back to the resort where the team stays for trips into Dallas-Fort Worth.
Servais approached Segura to inform that he’d be out of the lineup on Tuesday for a much-needed day off. It’s not something Servais has done often with Segura, who has started 106 of the Mariners’ 114 games.
