Cole Young Shines in Mariners' Opening Win

0:00On March 28, the Seattle Mariners kicked off their most hype season ever with a clean 5-1 win over the Guardians, and all eyes were on. 22-year-old prospect, Cole Young, at second base. Young smashed his first homer of the year, a monster shot, and flashed four slick defensive plays to anchor the infield. Luke Rayley launched his second straight homer into the right field seats, while George Kirby dominated with six strong innings on the mound. This squad is built on a balanced attack, with a deep lineup producing runs and an all-star rotation shutting doors, and Young fits right in as the guy who elevates the whole group's baseline. His compact 5-foot 10-frame hide serious pop, topping the team with six spring training bombs, and owning last year's longest blast at four. 156 feet, all while sharpening his plate discipline to crush a 97-mile per hour fastball in a clutch spot.
