The rampaging A's roared to their seventh straight victory, 4-2 over the Mariners. The A's trailed, 2-1, going into the eighth inning, but tied the game on a leadoff homer by Dave Revering. In the ninth, two-out singles by Dwayne Murphy and Mitchell Page and a two-run pinch-double by Jeff Newman produced the triumph. Newman's blow came off reliever Dave Heaverlo, who had just been brought on to replace Shane Rawley. [The Sporting News]
