Boone, Cameron set mark with back-to-back HR feat

CHICAGO -- Mike Cameron made history in more than one way Thursday.

Cameron and Bret Boone became the first teammates in major league history to both hit two home runs in the same inning, connecting back-to-back twice in Seattle's 10-run first against the White Sox on Thursday night.

Cameron didn't stop there, tying the major league record with four home runs. Cameron also had solo homers in the third and fifth innings as the Seattle Mariners routed the White Sox 15-4.

Cameron is only the 13th player to accomplish the four-homer feat.

Cameron and Boone wasted little time putting their names into the record book. After Ichiro Suzuki was hit by a pitch leading off the game, Boone homered. Cameron followed with a drive off Jon Rauch.

Two outs later, Boone again homered on the first pitch, this time off reliever Jim Parque. Cameron took Parque to a full count, then homered to center again.
