It got ugly early for the snakes, but they slithered back into it, inch-by-inch until the M's lit the final blow of the 4-run seventh inning.
- RRS wasn't great, but improved
- Wlad hit his second home run in as many games and recorded 3RBI
- Branyan hit a home run and a double and also logged 3RBI
- Sean White looked good - pitched two hit less innings recording 2K's and getting the win
- Jr is batting 1000 - walked twice and got a hit in his third AB of his first Cactus League game and of course had to add a little dramatic flair...
... I went into the clubhouse to talk to Griffey, and he held court for a long time on scuba diving and other topics. He also addressed his great departure from the game. Leading off the fourth, he singled sharply to left. As Chris Shelton trotted out to pinch-run, Griffey waved to the dugout and trotted down the first-base line, out of the stadium, and into the clubhouse.
" told Don I was going to hit a single, and I was just going to keep running right-field line if I had to beat it out,'' Griffey said. "I hit a single, I turned around, looked at him, saw someone coming out, and gave him a little wave and ran on in. that's all."
