SEATTLE -- The Rays have won seven games in a row with a four game sweep of the Mariners in Seattle after a three game sweep of the Indians at home. In the second inning, Rocco Baldelli belted a three-run homer to take an early three run lead, but Richie Sexson narrowed that lead to one in the fourth with a two-run shot. Akinori Iwamura got those runs back in the seventh with his own two-run homer. Then in the ninth, Richie Sexson tried to spark a comeback with a solo shot, his second homer of the game, but the Rays and Andy Sonnanstine hang on to win.

Rays: 5
Mariners: 3
