The Seattle Mariners picked up precious momentum and made some ground in the American League West with a 6-3 win against the Chicago White Sox on Sunday. The win gave the Mariners a series sweep — their first since June 14-16 against the Texas Rangers.
The series proved as successful series debuts for Randy Arozarena and Yimi Garcia. But it came with multiple close calls when it came to injuries.starting second baseman Jorge Polanco exited Sunday's win against the White Sox before the bottom of the seventh inning with a knee injury that "he's been dealing with," according to a report from MLB.com's Daniel Kramer. Jorge Polanco left today’s game with a knee issue that he’s been dealing with, coupled with the fact that the Mariners had a comfortable lead, Scott Servais just said.According to Kramer's report the injury doesn't look like it's one that will land Polanco on the injured list. "He's not 100%," Seattle manager Scott Servais said in a postgame interview Saturday. "He's got a little bit of a knee issue that we're trying to guard against. It's something that he's dealt with in the past. That's just where we're at in the season. He wants to play every day because he knows he's going really good with the bat. And we want to keep him in there but I thought with where we were at in the ball game — let's keep him off his limbs a little bit. We got a big series ahead of us." Keeping Polanco healthy will be critical for the Mariners down the stretch. He had three of the team's eight home runs against Chicago. He's hitting .243 in July with four homers and nine RBIs.The Seattle Mariners beat the Chicago White Sox 6-3 on Sunday behind a two-run home run from Cal Raleigh; The Mariners hit eight home runs during the series.
