Going Dee-p

Who had Dee Gordon setting a home run record?


The Seattle Mariners became the first major league team to homer in each of its first 15 games when Dee Gordon connected in the sixth inning, then beat the Kansas City Royals 7-6 Thursday behind Daniel Vogelbach‘s home run leading off the 10th.


Seattle improved the best record in the major leagues to 13-2, completing a four-game sweep and extending its winning streak to six. The Mariners became just the third team since 1987 to open with at least 13 wins in the first 15 games after Milwaukee (14-1 in 1987) and Boston (13-2 last year).

Gordon came up in 2011, and has the sixth lowest slugging percentage in that time among players with 3000 PA.
