Saturday September 9, 1978
. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Bob Stinson, Ruppert Jones, Leon Roberts and Tom Paciorek drove in two runs apiece as the Mariners rallied in the ninth inning to defeat the White Sox, 9-6. Singles by Meyer and Paciorek and a pass to Stein loaded the bases ahead of a two-run single by Stinson. Jones also knocked in a pair with a single and Roberts capped the rally with a two-run double.
