Mariners 2016 Season In Review: The Hitters

2016 was a banner year for the Mariners offense. As a club, Seattle ranked 3rd in the Major Leagues in home runs and 6th in the Majors in runs per game. The Mariners got contributions from up-and-down the lineup, as six different players hit at least 15 home runs. Robinson Canó, Nelson Cruz and Kyle Seager anchored the heart of the order, becoming the third trio of Mariners teammates in club history to hit 30 home runs apiece and the first since 1997. That is just a sampling of this season’s offensive fireworks.
