Career could not handle, and it went for an infield single to load the bases. Then Beltre, who entered the game 3 for 6 with the bases loaded this season, lined the first pitch he saw from Colon into the right-center field gap to score three runs. Colon got into a groove after Beltre's three-run double. He allowed only one hit - a one-out single by Winn in the fourth - from the third inning through the sixth inning. But his inability to get timely third outs in the first and second innings proved to be his demise. The early 7-0 cushion was more than enough for Seattle starter Joel Pineiro (3-4). The Mariners right-hander pitched his second complete game of the season, allowed six hits and two runs, and improved his lifetime record against the Angels to 4-3 in 14 games. Colon, who went six innings and allowed seven runs, fell to 7-8 in 18 career starts against the Mariners.

He went to third on a groundout by Vladimir Guerrero and scored on a groundout by Garret Anderson. Erstad, who had two of the Angels' six hits, singled to begin the seventh inning but was quickly erased when Guerrero grounded into his second double play of the game. The Mariners added a run in the top of the seventh. Ibanez led off the inning with a single against Angels reliever Kevin Gregg. After Sexson walked, Ibanez went to third as Beltre grounded into a 5-4-3 double play and scored on Gregg's wild pitch. Seattle added two more runs in the eighth inning on Winn's third home run of the season. With two outs, Ichiro singled to right field against Esteban Yan. After taking a ball, Winn drove the next pitch over the scoreboard in right field. Josh Paul hit his second home run of the season in the ninth inning for the Angels.
