Slumping slugger David Ortiz watched from the bench as his Boston Red Sox teammates hit their most homers in three weeks to win their last time out. 

Jason Bay slugged his 11th homer of the season in the first, Jason Varitek hit a two-run shot an inning later and Jeff Bailey also connected accounting for all of Boston's runs in a 5-3 win over the Seattle Mariners Saturday night to snap a three-game ski 

Jason Bay reacted to the first fastball he saw and slugged it into the bullpen in left field.
