A two-run rally in the bottom of the ninth carried the Mariners to a 6-5 triumph over the Brewers. With the Mariners trailing, 5-4, going into the final frame, Julio Cruz opened with a single and was sacrificed to second by Craig Reynolds. Bob McClure relieved Eduardo Rodriguez on the mound for the Brewers, walked Ruppert Jones and was yanked in favor of Bill Castro. A single by Leon Roberts loaded the bases and a single by Tom Paciorek drove in two runs to win the game. [The Sporting News]
