SEATTLE (AP) — Mariners left fielder Milton Bradley was a late scratch after being bothered by a sore calf.
Eric Byrnes replaced Bradley in the lineup for Sunday’s series finale against Detroit.
Bradley left Friday’s game against Detroit with what manager Don Wakamatsu said was a sore knee. Bradley was in the lineup Saturday and scored the go-ahead run in Seattle’s 4-2 win.
Before Sunday’s game, Wakamatsu said Bradley’s right calf was sore and that batting practice would determine if he would play. Bradley is hitting just .139 but is 4 for 15 with six RBIs on Seattle’s homestand.
