Kings Deal Toronto 9-7 Defeat
Ben Baker had a hand in Seattle defeating Toronto by the score of 9-7. Baker went 3 for 4 at the plate, scoring 2 times and driving in 2 runs. Seattle is now 42-26.

Seattle used a well-timed hit by Stan Merrick to capture the win. The first baseman socked a 2-run double in the top of the sixth inning to put the Kings ahead, 6-4. Though it was his only hit in 4 at-bats, it was important.

In postgame comments to the Seattle News, Merrick said, "If the effort is there, the wins will come."
