Mariners outfielder Mitch Haniger was out of Sunday’s starting lineup against the Texas Rangers after falling on his shoulder awkwardly trying to make a catch in Saturday night’s 15-1 loss.
“Mitch is a bit sore today,” said Mariners manager Scott Servais. “It was kind of a weird fall, the way he dove for the ball. It is never for a lack of effort. So we’ll give him today and tomorrow’s (an off day), and we’ll see where he is at.”
Servais said Haniger jammed his arm when he fell on his shoulder.
“They are looking at it this morning, but it’s not broken or anything like that,” Servais said.
