1993 | At the Kingdome, Jay Buhner becomes the first player in Mariners' history to hit for the cycle. The right fielder triples in the 14th inning to complete the task, scoring the winning run in the team's 8-7 victory over the A's. |
2000 | Bret Boone drives in six runs when he hits three home runs in the Padres' 10-7 victory over Cincinnati. Ruben Rivera's three-run homer in the top of the tenth inning off Scott Williamson proves to be the difference in the Cinergy Field contest. |

In an interleague contest against the Mets at Shea Stadium, Mariners' right-hander Felix Hernandez becomes the first pitcher in the 31-year history of the franchise to hit a home run. The round-tripper, which comes off fellow Venezuela ace Johan Santana, is also the first grand slam hit by an American League pitcher since Steve Dunning of the Indians homered off A's moundsman Diego Segui in 1971.
