Seattle Mariners outfielder Nelson Cruz will start in right field against the Colorado Rockies on Monday.
National League rules prevent the Mariners from using Cruz as a designated hitter. Ben Gamel is starting in left field while Guillermo Heredia rides pine. Right-hander Tyler Chatwood is on the mound for Colorado.
Cruz is slashing .286/.365/.537 with 12 home runs, 20 runs scored and 41 RBI's in 203 plate appearances this season (49 games).
