Mariners Take Nail-Biter Over Rangers
Seattle Mariners starter John Butcher was in fine form against the Texas Rangers at Kingdome, leading his team to a win, 5-4. Seattle reliever Jeff Reardon picked up the win, while Mike Paxton took the loss for Texas. The 5th-place Mariners go to 70-85.

The game came to an abrupt end with two out in the bottom of the 12th. On a pitch from Mike Paxton, Rance Mulliniks hit a run-scoring single. It gave Seattle the 5-4 win.

"There's nothing like the buzz of a walk-off win," Butcher said.
