And for the Mariners, both are found in Felix Hernandez. Its only in the fifth, but behind the pitching (and hitting) of Hernandez, the M’s are winning 5-1. So far, he has a 2 hitter going in the fifth. AND (most incredibly) he it a home-run in the second. Not just any home-run, mind you, but a GRAND SLAM. That’s right folks, for the first time in Mariner history, a pitcher hits a grand slam home-run!
Ok, guys…just keep up the defense for 4 more and we’re golden.

And then he left the game early with an ankle injury due to being spiked while covering home for a play at the plate. sadness.
Wow, I’m sorry I missed this one! Grand Slam… amazing! That means that 3 players before him got on base!!!Too bad about the ankle injury 😦
