Mariners steal two in Chicago, near ALCS
By Rick Gano
The Associated Press
CHICAGO — Seattle’s bullpen
bullied the Chicago White Sox
again, pushed aside the majors’
most potent offense and landed the
road-tough Mariners a 2-0 lead in
their division series.
Now the White Sox will try to be
sw'epless in Seattle when the
best-of-five series shifts to Safeco
Field on Friday.
“We don’t want to get in a slug
ging match with the White Sox. I
don’t know if it’s them struggling
or we’re making our pitches,” Alex
Rodriguez said Wednesday after
Seattle’s 5-2 victory.
The win featured 3 1-3 hitless
innings by Mariner relievers, a go
ahead homer by Jay Buhner and
superb defensive play by Mark
McLemore.
It all puts the White Sox, owners
of the AL’s best record, on the
verge of an early exit.
“Right now, obviously, we’re in
some trouble,” Chicago manager
Jerry Manuel said. “I think if any
team can do it, we can. We won 95
games and feel we can find a way
to win three more.”
But to have any chance of win
ning just one game, the White Sox
must start hitting the ball, especial
ly with runners in scoring position
— they are just 3-for-23 in the first
two games.
Seattle’s bullpen has allowed
just three hits in 10 scoreless in
nings over the first two games,
starting with 6 2-3 innings of
shutout ball in Tuesday’s 7-4 victo
ry
Paul Abbott gave up five hits
and two runs over 5 2-3 innings
Wednesday to win in his first post
season appearance in a pro career
that began in 1985.
Relievers Arthur Rhodes, Jose
Mesa and Kazuhiro Sasaki didn’t
allow a hit the rest of the way.
Sasaki struck out the side in the
ninth for his second save of the se
ries.
“The bullpen has been lights
out,” Abbott said. “You go out
there and know you have three or
four guys who are going to come in
and shut them down.”
The White Sox stranded eight
runners, giving them 18 in the first
two games. Frank Thomas was 0
for-4 Wednesday and is hitless in
seven series at-bats.
Chicago’s 3-4-5 hitters —
Thomas, Magglio Ordonez and
Carlos Lee — were a combined 0
for-9 Wednesday after going 2-for
13 in the opener.
“To tell you the truth, we’re not
surprised. But we also know they
could turn it on at any minute,”
Rhodes said.
“I sense they are pressing some
what. Obviously, what they need is
a bloop hit and not a home run,”
Manuel said of his floundering
middle hitters.
“It seems with all the fly balls
and popups, we are probably going
about it the wrong way. We should
be hitting a few more ground balls
and line drives.”
The Mariners won eight of their
final nine road games in the regu
lar season, including a wild card
clinching win at Anaheim last
Sunday. And now they’ve carried
it over into the postseason.
“We made it interesting and
tough on ourselves down the
stretch. Those games seemed like
playoffs games. Definitely that
helped,” Buhner said.

Horoscope by Linda C. Black
Today's Birthday (Oct. 5). You and a roommate
may quarrel this year, but the overall outcome
is good. Make your opinion known in October.
Listen and leant with love in November. Things
may not be as you thought in December. Diffi
culties at home could motivate you to travel
around January. By February you should feel
well-connected. A foreigner can forward your
progress in June, but a moody woman could
slow you down in July. Follow a hunch to gain
the information you seek in September.
To get the advantage, check the day's rating: 10
is the easiest day, 0 the most challenging.
ARIES (March21-April 19)—Today isa5 —
Everybody has an opinion about how you
should run your life. A little of that goes a long
way. Instead of telling them to shove it, be gra
cious. It’ll be more fun. and besides, you're
much better-looking when you're smiling.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — Today is a 7
— Going out seems like a good idea, but it's
not. If chores could interfere with an excursion,
let them. You'll do better closer to home. You'll
make or save money, too. Let your fingers do
the walking. Do business over the phone.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21)—Today is a 7 —
Something you and a sweetheart are planning
needs work. The way it's set up now is too ex
pensive. Go over your budget with a critical
eye. Discover this error before you spend the
money, rather than later.
' ’ANCER (June 22-July 22)—Today is a 7 —
omething isn't going well for your mate or
utner. Or, perhaps a household project of
ours has gone awry. Provide comfort and nur
uring food.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)—Today is a 5 —Your
latest r.e may not work as well as you'd
hop . on a small scale before you take it
public. .. .nance will go best if you let your
sweetheart take the lead. Listen carefully, and
you'll hear what isn't being said.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept 22)—Today is a 7 —
Does a loved one want something special? Are
you tempted to splurge and get it? Do you have
a steady income? If not, go for the good job
first After you get it, you can buy the toy. It'll
be part of your celebration.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct 22) — Today is a 5 —
You and a roommate might clash. You can go
for a complete victory, but it'll cost you. Work
out a compromise instead. Give in on a point
you don't care much about, and you'll win more
than you lose.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Today is a 7
— Better double-check the latest gossip before
you pass it on. You wouldn’t want to look fool
ish because of somebody else's error. On the
other hand, if you're the one who sets things
straight, you'll look pretty good.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — Today
is a 4 — Something that looks like a good deal
may be the opposite. Read the fine print before
you sign anything. It won't hurt to wait a little,
either. Your chances of success improve the
more you leant.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Today is
a 7—You and your friends know you're right,
but take care. Don't bet more than you want to
lose to prove it. An older person may be wrong,
but if he or she outranks you, be diplomatic.
Keep talking and listening.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — Today is a 6
— Hold off on travel for a day or so; you'll
avoid some hassles. Finish old business before
you launch into anything new. Think about
something a quiet woman said, and you'll be
prepared for a confrontation.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) — Today is an 8
— You're a generous person, and your contri
butions are appreciated. Don't overdo it,
though. Don't offer your savings account to a
good cause unless you'll get a good return. You
need to look out for yourself, too!
