Travis Hafner came off the disabled list to hit a grand slam as the Cleveland Indians beat the Seattle Mariners 9-1 on Sunday.

Hafner connected off Seattle ace Felix Hernandez (8-10) after a two-out error by second baseman Chone Figgins opened the door for Cleveland’s seven-run seventh inning.

Tony Sipp (2-2) worked a perfect seventh after Justin Masterson allowed one hit over six scoreless innings for Cleveland, which is just 4-11 at home since July 24.
