Kyle Seager working to beat the shift
Posted May 22, 2014
Kyle Seager knows the way to beat a shift is to show opposing teams he can hit the ball down the left-field line when he wants, so the Mariners third baseman took a couple shots that direction in his first two at-bats in Tuesday's 6-2 victory over the Rangers. Manager Lloyd McClendon said Seager has begun working the ball better to the opposite field and believes that will pay off.
