Bob Stinson, Ruppert Jones, Leon Roberts and Tom Paciorek drove in two runs apiece as the Mariners rallied in the ninth inning to defeat the White Sox, 9-6. Singles by Meyer and Paciorek and a pass to Stein loaded the bases ahead of a two-run single by Stinson. Jones also knocked in a pair with a single and Roberts capped the rally with a two-run double.
