Me Say Dae-Ho

Dae-Ho Lee wanna go home as he hits two home runs to help the Seattle Mariners in a big comeback as they beat the Oakland Athletics 9-8. Lee platoons, batting mostly against left-handed pitching. To this point, he faced LHP in 20 plate appearances, RHP ten times. He went 5 for 18 against lefties with two home runs, 2 for 10 against righties with no extra base hits.

He went 0 for 2 against Oakland starter, Sean Manaea, a left-hander. His two home runs, however, were against right-handed relievers. He gave the Mariners a good reason to re-think the platoon.

Oakland wasted a rare high scoring day, as they came into the day scoring just 3.43 runs per game.
