The seventh bases-loaded homer of Willie Horton's career was the big blow as the Indians scalped the Mariners, 10-5. Horton's first-inning blast was set up by a walk to Paul Dade, single by Rick Manning and walk to Buddy Bell. Horton, who also had a single in the game, doubled home another run in the third inning.
