OAKLAND — It took a little bit of good fortune for the Athletics to finally win at home against the Seattle Mariners.
Kemp started on second base and Seth Brown was intentionally walked by Castillo before Sean Murphy walked to load the bases for Neuse. Castillo reached up and cleanly fielded the bouncer but dropped the ball trying to make the exchange and failed to make a throw home — he might not have gotten Kemp anyway.Dany Jiménez pitched the ninth and 10th for the win.
Julio Rodríguez and Suárez hit triples for Seattle against a team that never seems to deliver three-baggers, but the Mariners couldn’t hold their early 2-0 lead. Seattle won the opener 10-2 on Friday night and will try to secure another winning series in Sunday’s series finale, having gone 12-3-1 in series over its last 16 sets since June 21. That is the best stretch since the AL-best 116-win 2001 team — the Mariners’ last playoff club, too — captured 15 of its final 16 series.

On the day Yankees general manager Brian Cashman was booed while the team retired the No. 21 of former star Paul O’Neill, the AL East leaders won for just the 10th time in 30 games since the All-Star break. They lead Toronto by eight games. After New York’s frustrations reached the point of ace Gerrit Cole punching the dugout roof and manager Aaron Boone pounding his hand on a podium Saturday, the Yankees’ only qualms were with Toronto starter Alek Manoah. In the fifth, Manoah plunked Aaron Judge in the left elbow with a sinker.
