Athletics Use Late-Game Magic to Beat Mariners, 4-3
|
The Athletics grabbed a win, 4-3, at Safeco Field, overcoming a fine effort from Seattle pitcher Jim Bartz. Bartz went 6.1 innings and allowed 1 run. Ben Meyer earned the win after being brought in from the bullpen. The right-hander allowed no runs on 2 hits in 3.2 innings. His record is now 2-1. Nick Rodriquez, who finished 2nd in the AL in saves with 35 in 2106, earned the save for Oakland.
Nick Thompson came through with a big-time hit for Oakland. The pinch hitter smacked a 2-run home run in the top of the eighth inning to give his team the lead, 4-2. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.
"This was a good win," said Thompson.
Their 26-18 record puts the Athletics second in the American League West Division.
