Mariners Clipped, 8-6
Seattle center fielder Ken Griffey Jr had a good game in a losing cause. His team fell, 8-6, to Oakland at Safeco Field. Griffey Jr went 2 for 4 with a home run and a double, while adding 5 RBI and scoring once. The win was credited to Mark Mulder in relief. His record improves to 1-0. Arthur Rhodes took the loss. The save was credited to Dennis Eckersley, his 28th.

Oakland used a timely hit from Nap Lajoie to get the win. The second baseman stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the eighth inning to put the Athletics ahead, 7-6. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a difference-maker.

"We'll pop the top on a cold beverage and get back to work tomorrow," Lajoie said.

Oakland is now 56-39, Seattle 54-41.
