Buhner Pounds 2 Homers in 6-5 Mariners Win
Behind the bravura of left fielder Jay Buhner, the Seattle Mariners topped the Oakland Athletics by the score of 6-5. Buhner was 3-4 with 2 home runs. He drove in 3 runs and scored twice for the Mariners. Kazuhiro Sasaki wrapped it up, recording his 22nd save. The winning streak has now reached 5 games for the Mariners.

Had Buhner not come through in the bottom of the eighth, who knows how the game would've ended? But with two down, Buhner hit a run-scoring single. The Mariners took the lead, 6-5, and never looked back.

"Whatever it takes to win," said Buhner. "That's our attitude."
