Watchpoints: Dyson on a recent surge — and not just on the bases
Mariners center fielder Jarrod Dyson has a simple explanation for his recent surge, which sends him into Tuesday’s game against the Detroit Tigers with a .348 average since May 27.
"When it’s rolling, it’s rolling," he said. "When it’s bad, it’s bad. That’s how it is."
Right now it’s rolling.
Dyson had three hits in Monday’s 6-2 victory over the Tigers, including singles just prior to each of Mike Zunino’s two homers.
"His on-base percentage continues to rise," manager Scott Servais said, "He’s got a little thing going. He’s telling Zunino the reason (Zunino) is hitting all of the homers is is because he’s hitting ahead of him, and he's always on base.
