Seattle Mariners shortstop Leo Rivas has made an impact for the team since getting called up.
In the bottom of the eighth inning an eventual 15-1 loss to the Detroit Tigers — Seattle Mariners shortstop Leo Rivas took the mound in an effort for manager Scott Servais to save his bullpen for the remaining eight games on the team's nine-game road trip.
It makes sense why Rivas wanted the ball. There's probably not going to be many opportunities for him to pitch in the future. Rivas is currently in the middle of his longest stint in the show. He's played 13 games since his latest promotion. Rivas's current look in the majors is due to injury to Seattle's usual starting shortstop, JP Crawford.
