Julio Rodríguez day-to-day with left wrist soreness
Before tonight’s game, Mariner All-Stars Ty France and Julio Rodríguez were honored before a sellout crowd north of 45,000. Like they had been the entire winning streak, Julio and Ty were slotted 1-2 in the batting order. After the ceremony in which Mariner legends Bret Boone and Mike Cameron threw out first pitches to France and Rodríguez, though, something was quickly amiss.
Literally a minute before first pitch, it was announced over the PA system that Julio was a late scratch, - despite seemingly nothing wrong with him during the ceremony. Dylan Moore took his place in center field, while J.P. Crawford slotted into the leadoff spot.
