Span delivered the tie-breaking home run in the fifth inning, then later provided an insurance run with an RBI single in the seventh.

Span went 1-for-5 with a triple and a run in a win over the Athletics on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran has now rapped out seven three-baggers on the season, three of which have come in a productive August. Span is hitting .301 with one game during the month with one game remaining, following a similarly impressive July (.313 average). He should continue drawing the majority of starts in left field down the stretch and retains an outside chance of reaching or eclipsing the career-high 68 RBI he compiled back in his sophomore 2009 campaign.

Span is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Diamondbacks, Shannon Drayer of 710 ESPN Seattle reports.

EDGE Analysis

Span heads to the bench with left-hander Robbie Ray taking the mound for the Diamondbacks, despite the fact his .288/.362/.400 slash line against lefties is comparable to his .277/.355/.440 season slash line. Mitch Haniger slides over to left field as Dee Gordon starts in center field, as the Mariners are likely to continue to shuffle their lineup to get everyone regular at-bats.

Span went 1-for-3 with a sacrifice fly, a double and a walk in a win over the Astros on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Span is in the midst of his second consecutive stellar month, as Monday's production pushed his August average to .319. The veteran outfielder continues to log the majority of starts over Guillermo Heredia in left field, and his solid .277/.356/.442 season line is partly comprised of a well-balanced array of 33 extra-base hits (18 doubles, six triples, nine home runs).

Span will take a seat Saturday against southpaw Rich Hill and the Dodgers, Shannon Drayer of 710 ESPN Seattle reports.
