The Indians recorded their fourth straight victory, 7-3 over the Mariners, who went down to their ninth consecutive defeat. The Tribe tallied four runs in the second inning on a walk and five straight singles and picked up two more markers in the third on a walk to Chris Bando, single by Rick Manning, throwing error by Seattle catcher Bud Bulling and an infield out by Dave Rosello.
