A grand-slam homer by Dan Meyer highlighted the Mariners' 10-5 victory over the Blue Jays. The Mariners trailed, 2-1, entering the bottom of third when singles by Julio Cruz and Bruce Bochte and a walk to Ruppert Jones loaded the bases. Meyer then unloaded his fifth round-tripper of the season and second slam. [The Sporting News]
