SEATTLE -- Late postgame notes . . .

* * *

Manny Ramirez collected an RBI last night and now has 110 in his career against the Mariners, moving him into a tie for 10th place with Hall of Famer Robin Yount in that category.

* * *

J.D. Drew, who was 2-for-3, has hit in 9 of his last 10 games against the Mariners, hitting .344 (11-for-32) in that span with six RBI. Drew has hit safely in all but 7 of his 42 games this season.

* * *

David Ortiz moved into a tie with Josh Hamilton for second-most homers in the American League. Only rookie Carlos Quentin has more in the A.L. The homer was the second in as many games for Ortiz and was the third time this year he's homered in consecutive games.
