Seattle's Bats Come Alive

Seattle (AP)
April 11, 2004

The Seattle bats came out swinning today. The Mariners collected 16 hits today. 4 of the hits came of the bat of Leftfield Raul Ibanez who went 4-5 with 4 RBI. 5 Mariners had at least 2 hits today against the A's pitching staff. Moyer was on the hill for the Mariners as the Mariners looked to take the rubber game of the series. Moyer pitched very well again, he pitched 6 innings gave up 4 hits and 1 ER. He also struck out 5 while only walking 1. Zito on the other hand another disappointing outing. Zito lasted 7 innings but gave up 13 hits and 6 ER. Every Mariner came out swinging at his big overhand curve ball and the were really smacking it around the field.

Seattle's big offensive guy this game was Leftfield Raul Ibanez who went 4-5 with 4 RBI. 3 of the RBI came off a 3 run shot in the 8th which put the game out of reach for the Mariners. Randy Winn also ahd a good game as he added 2 RBI and collected only 1 hit. John Olerud and Rich Aurilla also collected 3 hits but no RBI to show for it. The A's 1 and 2 hitters collected their 3 runs with Bobby Crosby knocking in 2 and Mark Kotsay knocking in 1. Oakland 4-6 hitters went a combined 1-11 with the only hit comming off the bat of Eric Chavez.

Winning Pitcher: Jamie Moyer (1-0, 1.35)
