Shawn Kelley ('07): 1/3 IP, 0H, 0R, K
Jason Mackintosh ('04): IP, H, 0R, 2K

Geoff Baker has this note on the homer by Halman:

The "Mariners'' fell behind 10-9 in the top of the ninth, but Greg Halman, pride and joy of Harlem (the Netherlands version, not New York's) opened the bottom of the frame with a solo homer to left. Halman hit 16 home runs in short-season Class A ball in Everett last season. Big-time prospect. So, it's now 10-10. Six errors in the game, four by San Diego. The field goal kicker is warming up, I'm told.

I would have gone with penalty shots, but that's just me.
