Go inside the dugout with the Seattle Mariners and Tacoma Rainiers
Sunday, August 27th, 2006

The Seattle Mariners recalled infielder-outfielder Mike Morse from Triple-A Tacoma on Sunday. To make room on the 25-man roster, the club has optioned outfielder T.J. Bohn to Tacoma.

"Mike gives us some more flexibility," Mariners manager Mike Hargrove said. "He was eligible to return today, so we made the move. I thought TJ did a nice job, but having Mike here gives us a few more
options on how we use our bench."

Morse, 24, has hit .409 (9x22) in nine games with the Mariners this season, with four doubles and eight RBI. In a combined three stints in Tacoma, Morse is a .248 (51x206) hitter with 15 doubles, one triple, five home runs and 34 RBI. He missed nearly the entire month of July (July 3-July 31) on the Rainiers disabled list with a torn meniscus in his left knee.

Bohn was 1-for-7 (.143) in five games with the Mariners, collecting his first Major League hit last night, a single off Boston's David Wells.
