Seattle whipped Oakland 10-4 and John Etheridge displayed a hot bat, enjoying an outstanding 5-hit day at Kingdome / Safeco Field.
"Some days, lady luck is on your side," he modestly told SION reporters after the game. His manager told the beat writers otherwise, "His hitting wasn't luck today. It's his solid approach to hitting. John is focused, patient and he hits to all fields. The more solid at-bats you put together, the more success you're going to have, and vice versa."
The 30-year-old first baseman for the Mariners collected 5 hits in 5 at-bats to get his name in the record book.
J. Etheridge singled in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, hit a three-run double in the 4th, hit a solo-shot off W. Moore in the 6th and doubled in the 9th.

For the game Haniger was 4 for 4 with 6 RBIs and 4 runs scored.
M. Haniger hit a solo-shot off E. Davis in the 1st, singled in the 4th, walked in the 5th, hit a two-run home run off E. Davis in the 7th and hit a three-run home run off N. Yamashita in the 8th.
