As was the case in 2012, Mariners third baseman Kyle Seager has performed much better on the road this season. One year after hitting .293/.324/.511 with 15 of his 20 home runs in 330 plate appearances on the road, Seager has hit .299/.377/.522 with three of his four home runs in 77 road plate appearances in 2013.
Those numbers heavily contrast with his home lines of .223/.307/.325 in 321 plate appearances in 2012 and .266/.288/.422 in 66 home plate appearances this season. The Mariners, who have played their last five games on the road, head home for a three-game series against the Athletics that starts Friday, before playing nine straight games away from Safeco Field.
