Ex-Tar Heels star Dustin Ackley has hot start for Seattle
Posted Mar 6, 2012
Dustin Ackley thinks the Seattle Mariners have the bats to improve an offense that finished last in the majors in runs last season. They looked OK Monday. Ackley had three hits to help the Mariners to a 13-7 exhibition victory over San Diego. "We've improved up and down the lineup," said Ackley, a Winston-Salem native.
