The Seattle Mariners again showed that they were better than their #16 seed would suggest, topping the #8 seeded Toronto Blue Jays 7-4. Ken Griffey Jr’s 3-run home run capped a 6-run 2nd inning against Dave Stieb. Griffey ended 3 for 5. Kenji Johjima was 2 for 4 with a double, triple, and 3 RBI. Stieb was pulled when he hit Jay Buhner to lead off the 3rd. Meanwhile, Randy Johnson allowed 3 runs on 5 hits in 6 innings, striking out 7 to pick up the win. George Bell hit a 2-run shot for the Blue Jays to lead their offense. Griffey has homered in both games so far in the tournament. The victory moves Seattle into the Elite 8 of the tournament winner’s bracket.
