A three-run outburst in the top of the ninth inning carried the Indians to a 5-3 victory over the Mariners. The score was 2-2 when Toby Harrah began the ninth with a walk and reached second on a sacrifice by Joe Charboneau. After pinch-hitter Alan Bannister was intentionally walked, Larry Andersen relieved Shane Rawley on the mound. Mike Hargrove then blooped a pinch-single to left to plate the tie-breaking run and Miguel Dilone and Jorge Orta singled home insurance tallies. [The Sporting News] |
