Kazuhiro Sasaki
Seattle scored four runs in the first inning of the Thursday afternoon game with a pair of two-run blasts before an out was recorded; Mike Cameron to left after a rare walk to Ichiro Suzuki and Edgar Martínez to center following a Bret Boone single. David Bell added an insurance homer to left in the fifth, and Cleveland starter Chuck Finley lasted only innings. Jamie Moyer kept the Indians at bay in the sun and shadows with one run in six-plus innings, and the trio of Jeff Nelson, Arthur Rhodes, and Kazuhiro Sasaki sealed the deal out of the bullpen. The Indians scored their only run in the seventh on a bases-loaded double play from Marty Cordova off Nelson; the run was charged to Moyer.
