Willie Horton hit two homers, including the ninth grand slam of his career, to lead the Mariners to an 8-4 victory over the Tigers. The Mariners also had homers by Dan Meyer and Larry Milbourne, while all of the Tigers' tallies came on round-trippers. Jason Thompson hit one and Champ Summers rapped two, his second blow coming with a man on base in the ninth inning.
