Homers by Leon Roberts and Willie Horton highlighted the Mariners' 8-4 triumph over the Tigers. The Mariners scored three times in the first inning on doubles by Ruppert Jones and Tom Paciorek and a round-tripper by Roberts. Horton led off the Seattle third with his 21st circuit clout. The Mariners combined three singles, two walks and two Tiger errors for four more runs in the fifth.
