Seattle Mariners 1B Mike Carp liked and admired the late OF Greg Halman, who was stabbed to death in his native Netherlands during the offseason. He had T-shirts made for every Mariners player and had them hung in their lockers. "A life is not important except in the impact it has on other lives," Carp said. "One thing I learned from Greg was never to take a day for granted."

Seattle Mariners OF Greg Halman looked very poised and patient at the plate in his debut with the team Sunday, June 5. "He had a great day," manager Eric Wedge said. "Greg was very under control up there. There's a lot of ability in there, a lot of power, a lot of explosiveness. You watch his BP, and you look at him up there today. He was very disciplined, but up there ready to hit. It's great to see him come out and perform the way he did today."

Halman could become more than just a sub for OF Franklin Gutierrez if he continues to play the way he did Sunday. If Halman earns his way into the starting lineup more, it could come at the expense of OF Mike Wilson.
