Dustin Ackley hit a three-run homer to extend his torrid start to spring training, and the Seattle Mariners beat the Chicago Cubs 10-3 on Thursday. Ackley is 5 for 11 with four hits for extra bases: two doubles, a triple and a home run. Cubs left fielder Alfonso Soriano is also off to a strong start, hitting his third homer -- a solo drive off Kevin Millwood -- and is hitting .625 (5 for 8).
