Right fielder Al Cowens hit for the cycle and had 5 RBI as the Seattle
Mariners outscored the Boston Red Sox 8 to 5.
 
Cowens was a source of great heartache for the Boston faithful all day.  He
just kept pounding out hits! He blasted a two-run home run in the 1st inning,
tripled plating two runs in the 2nd inning, doubled in the 7th inning and
slapped a single which brought home a run in the 8th inning.  Boston had a
chance in the 9th but they came up short.  
 
Bob Stoddard(3-1) got credit for the victory, pitching 8 and 1/3 innings and
allowing 5 runs. Stoddard got help from Bill Caudill who earned his 28th
save.  Chuck Rainey(4-7) took the loss.  He was unable to control the Seattle
offense and allowed 10 hits and 3 walks in 6 and 1/3 innings.  
 
Cowens was jubilant after the game 'Let me see a box-score' he joked, 'I want
to see how that game looks on paper.'

1982 AL Standings

September 1, 1982

  The 1982 MLB season is entering the last full month of the season. My Detroit Tigers continue their impressive journey to an AL East pennant. This may be the most over performing Detroit team I've ever managed (18 games better than their '82 "Actual" at this point of the season). The Milwaukee Brewers and Baltimore Orioles have both played close to their "Actual" record but find themselves 11.5 GB Detroit. Baltimore had the best month in August going 22-10.
  The California Angels lead the AL West. The Kansas City Royals and Chicago White Sox continue to be the only teams challenging California but both were sub .500 in August.

1982 NL Standings

September 1, 1982

  The St. Louis Cardinals continue their domination as the 1982 NL season enters September. The Cardinals are in 1st place in the East and only the excellent play of the 2nd place Montreal Expos has kept that Division race somewhat close. The Pittsburgh Pirates are also enjoying a fine season but still find themselves 9.5 GB St. Louis.
 In the NL West the San Diego Padres occupy 1st place with 3 teams hot on their heels. But the 2nd place Houston Astros are the only other team over .500 in the Division. The Atlanta Braves and Los Angeles Dodgers (the "Actual" best 2 teams in a tight pennant race in '82), continue their substandard play.
