The Mariners snapped the Orioles' seven-game winning streak and ended their own four-game losing skein with a 5-4 victory. Ruppert Jones drove in three runs with a pair of doubles. After his first RBI double in the fifth inning, Jones highlighted a three-run rally in the seventh with a two-run double and then scored on a single by Bruce Bochte. [The Sporting News]
