This one was ugly. It was a close game, with the M's scoring in the first inning, but while it wasn't a horrible loss, the incident in the dugout was what made this one go down as shameful. Ex-Mariner Mike Cameron doubled to left and Michael Saunders threw routine relay to shortstop Jack Wilson. Only, the throw went over his head and passed by Chone Figgins, who didn't appear to care one way or another, and Cameron stretched it to a triple. When Figgins returned to the dugout at the inning's end, Wakamatsu benched him and Figgins erupted, causing a fight among the team. Just another damn bit of drama that wasn't needed.
PLAYER OF THE GAME:
Vargas, for being solid and absorbing another loss.
