Scoring two runs after two were out in the ninth inning, the Mariners edged the Orioles, 4-3. Seattle trailed, 3-2, when Todd Cruz singled with one out in the top of the ninth, went to second on a single by Joe Simpson, advanced to third on a fly and scored on a single by Jim Essian.

The ball hit center fielder Al Bumbry on the leg and bounced away for an error, allowing Simpson to score the go-ahead run. Seattle's Steve Stroughter led off the fifth inning with his first major league homer. [The Sporting News]
