An imaginative outcome to a match brought joy to Seattle after an early scare!

Disquietude gave way to relief as triumph lighted the sky in Seattle last night after Felix Hernandez had to leave the game when he suffered a sprained ankle which he underwent while covering the home plate on a wild pitch. Nevertheless, he was assured to make the headlines in Caracas when he made history as he hit a homer off one of his compatriot Johan Santana's 95 m/p best pitches in the second inning which made him the first Mariners' pitcher to have hit a homer in Major League Baseball. Final score Mariners 5 - Mets 2.
