Glenn Wright, who won the Rookie of the Year Award in 1999, helped out the Seattle cause in the top of the sixth inning with a run-scoring single. For the game, the shortstop went 3 for 4 with a double and 2 singles.

"Sam kept his poise and got the job done," said Seattle manager Tyler Jorgensen. "He was outstanding."
