Carlos Guillen works Brad Radke for an 11 pitch at bat and finishes it with his first home run of the season. Dimtri Young follows up after an out with a solo shot down the line, and Monroe triples after that. Radke has now allowed seven home runs this season; it's a good thing he's only walked 1. Radke gets out of the first down 3-0.

What a great pickup Carlos Guillen turned out to be. He had steadily improving offensively during his career with Seattle; at age 28 he found himself with Detroit. He's now batting .403 with a .456 OBA. Imagine Carlos and Ichiro at the top of the Mariners lineup.
