It was another day of great hitting, with M's smacking 3 home runs. Mike Sweeney hit his 2nd homer of the season, Michael Saunders tied off his 2nd, and Ichiro hit his 1st. Going into the 8th inning it looked like this thing was in the bag.
Felix Hernandez bounced back from his previous start, going 7 innings while striking out 7, walking 2, and only giving up 1 run. It appears the King found his stuff and hopefully can keep up the pace.
Because then Baltimore turned a 5-1 deficit into a 6-5 with a couple of homers, one being a grand slam, in the 8th. It was Brandon League's worst inning of relief, and it led to his third loss of the season.
PLAYER OF THE GAME:
Felix Hernandez. He should have gotten a win with this performance and the run support given him.
