KYLE SEAGER NEWS

Swats homer in blowout defeat Seager went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Friday's 12-3 loss to the Astros.

Impact Seager got the Mariners on the board with a solo blast off Lance Mccullers in the fourth inning, but by that point, the Astros had already put up seven runs and would keep on scoring. The 33-year-old third baseman has had a strange year. He's two home runs away from tying the career-best 30 long balls he had in 2016 but he's also heading towards a career-low batting average. Seager is slashing .219/.294/.453 with 49 extra-base hits, 79 RBI, 53 runs scored and three steals. He's currently striking out 24.7 percent of the time, which is just one year removed from a career-low 13.3 strikeout percentage in 2020.

Plates pair in win Seager went 1-for-5 with an RBI double and a bases-loaded walk in an extra-innings win over the Rangers on Thursday.

Impact Seager opened the scoring on what would be a prolific day for offense on either side by lacing an RBI two-bagger that plated J.P. Crawford in the first inning. With 78 RBI, the veteran third baseman has now tied his best mark in that category over the last four seasons, and he's demonstrated a propensity for putting particularly good wood on the ball during the second half of the season with a .547 slugging percentage largely fueled by four doubles and 11 home runs.

Three shy of career-high HR total Seager went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and a double in Wednesday's 3-1 win over the Rangers.

Impact Seager staked Seattle to an early 2-0 lead when he took Texas starter Mike Foltynewicz deep to right field. The home run was Seager's 27th of the season and represents his best mark since 2017. He's well within striking distance of surpassing the career-high 30 he tallied in 2016.
