Tom Paciorek drove in six runs -- three with a homer and three more with a triple -- to spark the Mariners to an 8-4 decision over the Blue Jays. Paclorek's homer sent the Mariners ahead, 4-3, in the fifth inning. After Ruppert Jones drove in a run with a single in the sixth, Paciorek came up with the bases loaded and hit his triple.
