A two-run homer by Willie Horton in the first inning and another two-run blow by Tom Paciorek in the third opened the Mariners' attack in an 8-0 victory over the White Sox. Larry Milbourne drove in two more runs with a triple in the sixth.

Rick Honeycutt, who was the winner, bringing his record to 7-1, was forced to leave the game in the sixth inning after being hit on the left ankle by a groundball single off the bat of Bruce Kimm. Shane Rawley completed the shutout. [The Sporting News]
