Wade LeBlank: Veteran lefty still impressing and Mariners found sliver of offense in shutout win | The News Tribune

Say whatever you will about going for a bunt in baseball in this day and age.

But Seattle Mariners manager Scott Servais seemed to finally have enough. They tried it the new-age way after their first three leadoff doubles and they were going old school when Dee Gordon led off the eighth with another double.

Then, finally, a run.

Jean Segura bunted and former Mariner Logan Morrison’s throw to first sailed wide and into right field, allowing Gordon to saunter home and the Mariners finally brought in a runner from scoring position for what seemed like the first time in years.
