VIDEO: Mariners' Cruz blasts 3-run home run in return to Baltimore

Seattle Mariners outfielder Nelson Cruz admitted prior to the game that there are no hard feelings, but that didn't stop him from sticking it to his former team Tuesday in his return to Camden Yards.

The three-time All-Star led the majors with 40 home runs as a member of the Baltimore Orioles last season and has carried his torrid pace into 2015 with the Mariners.

Cruz, who agreed to a four-year, $57-million deal with Seattle in December, clubbed a three-run home run in the third inning off Miguel Gonzalez for his league-leading 16th of the season.

The Orioles would get the last laugh however, going on to win 9-4.
