Emerson was called up from Triple-A Tacoma and is batting ninth in Sunday's series finale versus the Padres, Daniel Kramer of MLB.com reports.

Emerson will make his major-league debut as the starter at third base after Brendan Donovan (groin) was placed on the 10-day injured list Sunday. Emerson has posted a .255 average with seven home runs, 26 RBI, 26 runs scored and 10 stolen bases over 145 at-bats in 38 contests with Tacoma so far this year. In Donovan's absence, Emerson is expected to operate as Seattle's primary third baseman.
