ANAHEIM -- Robinson Cano emerged unscathed from Saturday's incident in which he got hit in the temple with an errant warmup throw by Angels shortstop Taylor Featherston while sitting in the dugout between innings, but the Mariners knew they dodged a bullet.
"It was an inch and a half away from his eye," said manager Lloyd McClendon, who had Cano back at second base for Sunday's series finale. "That could be career-ending. The thought is scary. You take things for granted in this game, but anything can happen at any time. We were very fortunate in this instance.
