Jeff Bagwell had 2 HR and 4 rbi for CSP. Seattle scored first on an rbi single by Raul Mondesi in the 4th. Eric Davis robbed Rainier catcher Sandy Martinez of a 2-run extra base hit to end that inning. Caspar got a run back in the home 4th on an RJ error, a single and an infield out by Rondell White. Then, in the 6th, Caspar jumped all over Johnson, driving him from the game with a barrage of hits that included Bagwell's first HR and rbi 2b by Davis and 2-run 2b by Kent. A second (3-run) HR by Bagwell off of Rod Beck pretty much sealed the win for Caspar. Martinez was dominant, striking out 8 and allowing just 3 singles in a route going effort.

Raul Mondesi (HR, 2B), Shane Mack (HR) and Lance Johnson (2B) each had 3 hits to pace the Rainier offense. Mike Munoz and Rich Garces teamed up to close out the win that sends the series to New Sick's Stadium tied 1-1.

Raul Mondesi had homered in the 7th to tie the game 1-1. The game featured a controversial safe call on a what appeared to be a routine out at first base -- Chipper Jones was called safe with 1 out in the 7th and Rainier firstbaseman Will Clark was subsequently ejected for arguing the call. This ejection forced Seattle to play without the DH, as DH J.T. Snow had to come into the game as 1B. Co-manager Don Singleton was later ejected in the decisive 8th after a balk was called on Rainier reliever Rich Garces putting Ghost Jeff Bagwell at second. Singleton briefly argued the call. But when Strawberry drove Bagwell home with a single one pitch after the balk, Singleton was excused from the game for providing additional commentary. The real story of the game, however, was the continued inability of the Rainiers to hit -- CSP limited the R's to just 4 hits. Vic Darrensbourg, who surrendered the game tying homer to Mondesi (BS), was the vulture winner for CSP.

Crucial DP turned by the solid CSP defense snuffed two pseudo-rallies by Seattle. For the second game in a row, an ejection forced a team to play without the DH -- this time CSP 3B Chipper Jones was ejected for arguing an out call on a steal attempt and DH Ledesma was forced to replace Jones in the field. Pedro Martinez, batting in Jones' old spot, scored the unearned insurance run in 7th after reaching on a Will Clark error.

The win was costly, however, as 1B Jeff Bagwell will be lost to the Ghosts for the NCCS after sustaining a severe ankle injury on a successful steal attempt in the first inning. Rainier Game Two hero Stan Spencer didn't fool the Ghosts the second time 'round and took the loss after yielding 4 runs (3 earned) in 3 innings. Mussina limited SEA to a solo HR by Butch Huskey in his 5 innings of work, earning the win. A 3-run triple by Lance Johnson brought the R's to 5-4 with 2 out in the bottom of the 9th, but Ligtenberg was able to induce J.T. Snow to ground out to Garciaparra and end the series, sending Seattle home for the second autumn in a row.
