Seager Reaches 20 Homers in M's Win

by Nick Berry, KHQ News Producer - email

SEATTLE (AP) - Kyle Seager became the first Seattle batter to hit 20 home runs in a season since 2009 with a solo shot in the first inning and the Mariners beat Mike Trout and the Los Angeles Angels 6-1 on Tuesday night.

The penultimate game of the season came a night after the Angels were eliminated from the AL wild card chase. And they played like a team with nothing tangible left to play for, tying their season high with three errors, including a pair in the sixth inning by right fielder Mark Trumbo that helped two runs score.

Trout had one hit in five at-bats to see his average drop to .324. He's seven points behind leader Miguel Cabrera.
