SPORTS Wednesday, August 21, 2019 East Oregonian A9 Baseball: Murphy homers in 4 straight games Continued from Page A8 AP Photo/Gregory Bull, File Seattle Mariners starting pitcher Felix Hernandez works against a San Diego Padres batter April 24, 2019, in San Diego. Hernandez is scheduled to rejoin the Mariners this weekend. Hernandez to rejoin rotation this weekend By DICK SCANLON Associated Press ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Pitcher Felix Hernandez will rejoin the Seattle Mar- iners’ starting rotation this weekend. Manager Scott Servais made the announcement Tuesday. Hernandez has missed three months with right shoulder stiffness. He pitched 3-plus innings Monday night for Triple-A Tacoma in his fourth rehab appearance, giving up one run on four hits and three walks while striking out fi ve. “Command of the fast- ball, as expected, wasn’t as pin-point as he would have liked it, but he felt healthy,” Servais said. “So he will slide into our rotation on Saturday.” The 33-year-old righty last pitched for the Mariners on May 11. In eight starts this season, Hernandez is 1-4 with a 6.52 ERA. Hernandez won the AL Cy Young Award in 2010 and has fi nished among the top four in Cy Young voting three other times. He has had injury set- backs in each of the last four seasons, winning a combined 26 games in 77 starts. The Athletics hosted the New York Yankees later. “We’ve been in a rut here for a little while. To be honest, it’s been a grind here since we’ve gotten back home,” said Rays manager Kevin Cash. “We’re not playing good baseball right now, that’s fair to say,” said center fi elder Kevin Kier- maier. “I think it all stems from our offense. We just don’t have a lot of guys locked in right now, to be quite honest.” Seager’s 17th home run off Rays opener Diego Castillo drove in Seattle’s fi rst two runs. It was Sea- ger’s eighth homer during a 14-game hitting streak, and he drove in another fourth, helping Tampa Bay take a 4-2 lead off Milone. Austin Nola’s two-out double brought the Mar- iners back to a 4-4 tie in the fi fth. MARINER PITCHING PLANS The Mariners will call up 23-year-old LHP Justus Sheffi eld for his fi rst major league start Friday night against Toronto. With RHP Felix Hernandez plugged back into the rotation Sat- urday, LHP Yusei Kikuchi will be bypassed this time around after pitching a shut- out on Sunday. Manager Scott Servais explained that the plan to skip Kikuchi for one turn was made before his complete-game shutout against the Blue Jays.

Willy Adames and Kiermaier had back-to- back hits in the second inning and again in the California: As senior, Ramirez shifts focus to baseball Continued from Page A8 next level. “The Washington kids throw fast and know where to place the ball,” Ramirez said. “I think what really threw me off was all the left- handed pitchers — and their ball moves.” Blue Mountain and Columbia Basin College in Pasco showed interest in Ramirez, but he was hoping for a little more. Moore was able to help him out. “When you are in a coach- ing community, you know coaches in certain areas,” Moore said. “I called around, and someone gave me the name of the Santa Barbara coach. They had a couple of openings. I made the connec- tion, it was up to him.” Moore said Ramirez, who next level without a little help, and he was quick to give credit to his coaches along the way. “I want to thank coach (Lance) Hawkins and coach (John) Christy for believing in me my sophomore year and helping me develop my game,” Ramirez said. “And coach Moore, for making me trust the system. I learned a lot of things from him.” also pitched a few innings this past season, is well suited for the outfi eld. “There is space for him to roam,” Moore said. “He has a lot of range and a strong arm. This will be a good opportunity for him. In Cal- ifornia, you can play all year around.” Ramirez, who plans to study business, knows he couldn’t have reached the SCOREBOARD SOCCER MAJOR LEAGUE SOCCER EASTERN Atlanta Philadelphia New York City FC D.C.
