In baseball's power age, Dee Gordon proving contact and speed is just as fun to watch | The News Tribune

Turns out, Dee Gordon with one good knee is still faster than just about everyone else.

Mariners manager Scott Servais pulled Gordon in the seventh inning of their win on Saturday against the Cleveland Indians after Gordon’s knee awkwardly buckled while he was chasing a home run. Gordon crashed into the wall, too.

Since then?

Gordon played Sunday and went 4-for-5 at the plate. Then he went 5-for-5 in the Mariners 6-3 win over the Oakland Athletics on Tuesday.
