Mariners' dugout confrontation overshadows latest loss

The confrontation began when Wakamatsu told Figgins he was pulling him from the game for not backing up cutoff man Jack Wilson on a high throw by left fielder Michael Saunders in the fifth. Figgins stood at second base watching the ball bounce by him, enabling Mike Cameron to take third base on what had been a leadoff double.
