Rookie Ricky Keeton, in his major league debut, limited Seattle to three hits over seven innings to receive credit for the victory as the Brewers won their fifth straight game, beating the Mariners, 4-1. The Brewers scored three runs in the first inning. Paul Molitor walked, stole second and tallied on a single by Robin Yount. Ben Oglivie then walked and Sixto Lezcano followed with a two-run double.
