Diego & Philadelphia (2004), St. Louis (2006), Washington (2008), New York AL & NL (2009), Minnesota (2010)
and Miami (2012) have opened since.
LUCKY 13Kyle Seager extended his hit streak to 13 games on the final day of the first half...that matches
the Mariners longest hit streak of the 2016 season, done by Robinson Can May 1-14...Can enters today
with a 9-game hit streak.
GOT A CHANCE TO BE CLOSE...Houston (32 games) and Seattle (31 games) rank 1st and 2nd in the
Majors in number of 1-run games played this season, with the Astros posting a 17-15 mark while Seattle is
13-18...of the 10 games between the two clubs, four have been decided by 1-run (teams have split the four).
BIG DIFFERENCE...in the first half of 2015, Seattle posted a -48 run differential, the second-worst mark in
the AL...in this seasons first half, Seattle posted a +51 run differential, the fourth-best mark in the AL (CLE,
+81; TOR, +75 & BOS, +66)...the 99 run improvement (from -48 to + 51) 3rd best in the AL behind BOS (+109)
and CLE (+100) and fourth-best in the Majors (CHI-NL, +123).
HOT COUPLE...since June 28, Kyle Seager (22) and Robinson Can (21) rank 1-2 in the Majors in hits...
Seager (22x49/.449) is 2nd in the Majors in average during that span, while Can (21x51/.412) is 5th.
BLACKJACKRobinson Can enters tonight with 21 home runs this season matching his 2015 season
total21 homers also matched the most hes ever had prior to the All-Star Game: he had 21 prior to the break
in 2013, and 20 prior to the ASG in 2012.
IRON MENRobinson Can enters play tonight with the third-longest active games streak in the Majors,
having appeared in each of the Mariners last 147 games...(Jose Altuve has the longest active streak at 180)...
Can has started all 147 and his streak of starts is the longest in the Majors (Alcides Escobar, KC, is second
at 97 games)...in addition to Can playing all 89 Mariners games this season, Kyle Seager has appeared
in 88 and Nelson Cruz played in 87.
CLOSING IN ON RYNERobinson Can homered in the 7th Sunday (July 10) giving him 761 extra base
hits in his career...thats tied with Hall of Famer Ryne Sandberg for 7th most all time by a second baseman
(primary position)...Can has 469 doubles, 32 triples and 260 home runs in his career...the only second
baseman with more extra base hits are Craig Biggio (1,014), Rogers Hornsby (1,011), Jeff Kent (984), Charlie
Gehringer (904), Nap Lajoie (902), Joe Morgan (813), Roberto Alomar (794) and Sandberg.
EXTRA, EXTRASeattles trio of Robinson Can, Nelson Cruz and Kyle Seager have combined for 131
extra-base hits this season...Kyle leads the way with 46 (4th in the AL) and Robinson is right behind with 45 (T5th
in AL)...Nelson has 40 extra base hits (T13th)...the 131 combined XBH is third most by a teammate trio in the AL
(Boston 144, Toronto 136)...Seattle joins Boston (Ortiz 57, Betts 45 & Bradley Jr. 42) and Toronto (Donaldson 48,
Encarnacion 45 & Saunders 43) as the only AL teams with 3 players with 40 or more extra base hits.
DOUBLE UPKyle Seager finished the first half with 26 doubles, a new first-half high (previous: 24 in
2013)...Seager is the first Mariners player to reach as many as 25 doubles prior to the All-Star Break since
2008 when Jose Lopez and Raul Ibanez each had 26...no Mariner has had 27 before the break since John
Olerud in 2002...bonus note: Seattles club record for doubles prior to the break is held by Mariners hitting
coach Edgar Martinez who had 42 in 1996...only 1 other player in team history has had as many as 30
doubles at the break: John Olerud notched 32 in 2000.
WINNERSat 45-44, Seattle had a winning record before the break for just the second time since 2010
(also: 51-44 in 2014)...Seattle has had a .500 or better mark at the break 13 times in club history (1982, 87,
90, 93, 96-97, 2000-03, 07, 09 & 14).
SIMPLY SEAGERsince June 24, Kyle Seager is hitting .407 (24x59) with 12 runs, 10 doubles, 3 home
runs, 13 RBI and 8 walks (10 strikeouts)...Kyles slash line is .407/.478/.729 for a 1.206 OPS...he has a
current 13-game hit streak (20x40/.455).
MULTI MADNESSKyle Seager has collected multi-hits in 9 of his last 16 games (since June 24)...overall
he has 27 multi-hit games in 2016, T19 in the AL and 2nd on the club: Robinson Can (34) leads, while Kyle
is just ahead of Nelson Cruz (25)...Kyle now has 205 career multi-hit games in his career; thats the most alltime by a Mariners third baseman...Adrian Beltre (2005-2009) had 201 multi-hit games with Seattle.
AS YOU KNOWKyle Seager finished the first half with 18 home runs, including his final homer, a 3-run
shot off Edinson Volquez, but DID YOU KNOW?Kyle now has six 3-run homers, the most in the Majors?
Adam Lind, Jay Bruce (CIN), Josh Donaldson (TOR), Adam Duvall (CIN) all have five 3-run homers and are
tied for second in the Majors...in all, 11 of Kyles 18 homers have come with runners on base; thats tied for
sixth most with Duvall and Kris Bryant (CHI-NL).
