Mitch Haniger’s mash, Dee Gordon’s flash work well for Mariners. Takeaways from rally over Indians | The News Tribune

Dee Gordon has half as many home runs as he had all of last season.

And the Mariners keep getting homers from their cleanup hitter, too.

This time it was Mitch Haniger, though.

He homered for the second consecutive day in his best Nelson Cruz impersonation, with Cruz out with a twisted ankle suffered after his second homer in two games on Saturday. But the Mariners showed plenty of boom even without their Boomstick in a 5-2 victory over the Indians on Sunday to steal the series against the team that had the most wins in the American League last year.
