Mariners had a photo of the wrong Herrera on scoreboard during game against Royals

Kelvin Herrera was traded to the Nationals last month and he's, you know, a closer. To be fair, Kelvin Herrera does have one career plate appearance - in Game 3 of the 2014 World Series.

Also: Rosell Herrera has appeared in just 12 games with the Royals, who claimed him off waivers from the Reds last month.

Not long after people began tweeting about the wrong image on the scoreboard, Kelvin Herrera responded with a funny message on Twitter.

"Rosell is my spirit animal"
