Go inside the dugout with the Seattle Mariners and Tacoma Rainiers
Saturday, August 19th, 2006

Rainiers pitcher Cha Seung Baek, second in the PCL with 12 victories and among the league leaders with a 3.00 ERA, will be recalled and take Jamie Moyer's place on the Mariners roster, the News Tribune has learned.

Baek, 26, is having his best season of his career after having his worst. In 2005, he had a 6.41 ERA and was taken off the Mariners' 40-man roster. But he re-signed with Seattle, went to a tighter breaking curveball and has had a big bounce back year.

To read more on Baek, check out Page 7 of Sunday's News Tribune sports section. I talked with Baek for about a half hour on Friday about his success this season.
