Local Veteran Does Well For Mariners

Steven Souza Jr. a veteran  outfielder 
who signed a minor league contract 
with the Mariners  right after the end
of lockout. 

Souza made his spring training debut
on Saturday for the Mariners. He hit 
a grand slam in the first inning to lead 
the Mariners  to victory over the LA
Dodgers. He obviously  was player of
the game. Going to  highlight each 
player who was the player of the game.

Souza is a local  player from Everett.
Last year  he played in 17 games for 
the  Dodgers so the home run was sweet 
for him.

His best season in the majors was for the
Tampa Bay Rays where he hit 30 home runs
in 2017. The chances will be hard for him
to make the  Mariners as an outfielder but
never know. He will add depth if he starts
in Tacoma.  Has a good spring will open
eyes for other teams to.
