Bloomquist, Mariners edge Padres
Baseball Betting Lines
06/11/2007 -
San Diego, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Willie Bloomquist scored the go-ahead run on
a Jose Lopez ground out in the ninth inning, as the Seattle Mariners won 4-3
and completed a three-game sweep of the San Diego Padres at PETCO Park.
Ichiro Suzuki drove in two runs and Jamie Burke went 3-for-4 with two runs
scored for the Mariners, who rallied from a 3-1 deficit to win for the seventh
time in eight games.
Mike Cameron and Terrmel Sledge each homered for the Padres, who ended a six-
game homestand, 3-3.
With the game tied 3-3 and San Diego's Trevor Hoffman starting the inning on
the hill, Bloomquist started the ninth by reaching on a throwing error by
third baseman Kevin Kouzmanoff. Pinch-hitter Jose Vidro then sacrificed him to
second and after Suzuki was intentionally walked, Bloomquist stole third with
Lopez at the plate. Then, on a 2-1 pitch, Lopez grounded out to second,
scoring Bloomquist for the winning run.
"The last month we've been playing very, very good baseball," said Bloomquist.
"Everyone is contributing, doing their jobs and making us a better team...The
more we win, the more we want to win."
Hoffman (2-3) suffered the loss, yielding the unearned run in a hitless frame.
"We've had three good games and came up on the short end each time -- that's
tough," said San Diego manager Bud Black. "When you lose them late, like
today, it's even tougher. I think this team will be fine. We've played so many
close games we'll bounce back."
Miguel Batista (7-4) got the win, tossing an inning of one-hit relief. J.J.
Putz tossed a perfect ninth, striking out two, for his 18th save in as many
chances.
Seattle's Yuniesky Betancourt ended 0-for-4 to see his 20-game hit streak come
to an end.
The Mariners got going in the third inning. Burke singled to start the frame,
moved to third on a base hit by Bloomquist and scored when Hernandez reached
on a bunt.
The Padres answered in the fourth when Cameron hit a solo homer and Sledge
connected for a two-run shot.
Seattle, tough, tied the game in the seventh. Richie Sexson started the inning
with a single and moved to second when Burke came through with a one-out base
hit. After pinch-hitter Ben Broussard was hit by a pitch, Suzuki singled to
plate a pair of runners and force San Diego starter Chris Young from the game.
Young was charged with three runs on seven hits in 6 2/3 innings. His
counterpart, Felix Hernandez allowed three runs on seven hits in six frames,
striking out six and walking one.

Jose Cruz and Khalil Greene each ended 2-for-4 for the Padres...The Mariners
