GAME 1 - 8/16 - Metropolitan Stadium
Fassero vs Boswell
97-SEA 7, 69-MIN 4
Seattle's offense wasted no time getting itself in full gear with 7 runs in the first 5 innings off of Twin starter Dave Boswell. Jeff Fassero gave up just 2 runs in 7 innings and Seattle's suspect pen only gave up 2 runs. Russ Davis was the offensive star going 2 for 4 with 3 RBI's and 2 runs scored thanks to a triple and a homer.
GAME 2 - 8/17
R.Johnson vs J.Perry
MIN 3, SEA 2 (11 inn)
Tied at 2-2 Rich Reese walked to lead off the bottom of the 11th vs Sanders. After Charlie Manuel hit into a force play George Mitterwald walked to put runners on 1st and 2nd with 1 out. Rick Renick grounded one through the hole to score Manuel to give the Twins a walk off win. Without Jim Holt's 2 run pinch hit homer in the 7th the game doesn't even get to extra innings. A-Rod had his second consecutive 2 hit game as the M's leadoff man, but did not score any runs.
GAME 3 - 8/18 - Kingdome
Kaat vs Moyer
SEA 9, MIN 1
A 6 run outburst in the bottom of the 4th knocked Jim Kaat out of the box. Seattle's Jamie Moyer was on cruise control giving up just 1 run in 6 innings. Three Mariners (Joey Cora, Mike Blowers & Dan Wilson) had 3 hit games with Wilson adding a 2 run triple to raise his season average to .500
GAME 4 - 8/19
Hall vs Oliveras
SEA 6, MIN 4
Neither starter had much to offer except runs for the other team. Seattle once again powered up and outscored the Twins. Homers from an unlikely source (Joey Cora) and a likely one (Junior Griffey) powered the M's to victory. Both A-Rod and Cora had 3 hit days as once again the M's posted double digit runs to support fine outings from Sanders and Ayala out of the pen.
