OAKLAND http://www.tigersfanproshop.com/authentic-al-kaline-jersey ,
Calif. (AP) — Another solid outing from Mike Fiers and Jed Lowrie’s 100th career
home run helped the surging Oakland Athletics move a step closer to first place
in the AL West.The Seattle Mariners, who were eight games ahead of Oakland six
weeks weeks ago, are just trying to stick around in the wild-card race, a task
that got a little tougher following an injury to ace James Paxton’s pitching
arm.Jed Lowrie hit a two-run homer after his line drive knocked Paxton out of
the game in the first inning, and Oakland beat Seattle 3-2 on Tuesday night to
move within one game of the slumping Houston Astros.Fiers (8-6) gave up two runs
on six hits in six innings with five strikeouts in his second start since being
acquired in a trade from Detroit.Oakland won its fourth straight and improved to
17-6 since the All-Star break. The Astros have been in first since June 14 and
led by as many as six games in late July, while the A’s haven’t had a share of
first place this late in a season since Aug. 25, 2014.“We feel good,” Oakland
manager Bob Melvin said. “We’ve got some confidence, obviously, because of the
stretch. But I don’t think anybody’s thinking about that right now. We’re just
trying to win.”It got a bit easier after Paxton’s early exit. He allowed a home
run to Marcus Semien and struck out Matt Chapman before Lowrie lined a 2-1 pitch
up the middle that hit the left-hander.“It got all muscle Lance

tightened up right away. By the time I walked off the mound it was starting to
puff up.”Mariners manager Scott Servais said Paxton will miss at least one
start.“We’ll know more in the next coming days and how the swelling is,” Servais
said. “It’s unfortunate, but looking on the bright side, we probably got a
little lucky. It could have been a lot, lot worse.”Felix Hernandez replaced
Paxton in the first relief appearance of his career after 398 starts. The former
Cy Young Award winner, who has struggled all year and was demoted to the bullpen
last week, allowed two runs in 5 2/3 innings.“It was weird,” Hernandez said. “I
just grabbed the ball and tried to throw as many pitches as I could, trying to
get loose. I know my body, I know my arm. I was ready to go.”Hernandez’s stay in
the bullpen might not last long. He’s expected to take Paxton’s turn in the
rotation until the left-hander returns.“Paxton has been a horse for us all year.
He’s had a great season http://www.tigersfanproshop.com/authentic-omar-infante-jersey ,”
Servais said. “But there’s nothing you can do. It was a comebacker that was hit
really hard. I knew right away when I went out there it wasn’t going to be
good.”Robinson Cano returned to Seattle’s lineup after serving an 80-game
suspension for using a diuretic that can mask performance-enhancing drugs. The
eight-time All-Star batted second and played first base, going 1 for 4.Four
Oakland relievers combined to pitch three scoreless innings. Blake Treinen
worked the ninth for his 32nd save in 36 opportunities.Hernandez (8-11) walked
Khris Davis but pitched out of the jam in the first. He ran into trouble in the
third after a two-out walk to Chapman. Lowrie followed with his 19th homer this
season.“It was a pretty good curveball. I think he was sitting on it,” Hernandez
said. “I just have to attack the hitters, attack the strike zone and make good
pitches.”Cameron Maybin homered for Seattle.ODDS AND ENDSThe A’s are 38-12 since
June 16, their best 50-game stretch since 2005. … Semien’s leadoff homer was the
second of his career. The other came Sept. 26, 2017 and was also off Paxton. …
Maybin has a nine-game hitting streak.TRAINER’S ROOMMariners: 2B Dee Gordon was
back in the lineup after sitting out the series opener with a bruised right
shoulder he suffered sliding into a base in Houston on Sunday.UP NEXTSeattle RHP
Mike Leake (8-7, 4.11 ERA) seeks his first win in three starts against Oakland
this season. Leake has five consecutive quality starts. LHP Brett Anderson (2-3,
4.53) is 2-1 since coming off the disabled list. OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) — The
Oakland Athletics have acquired right-handed reliever Cory Gearrin from the
Texas Rangers for minor league right-handers Abdiel Mendoza and Teodoro
Ortega.The teams announced the deal Friday, the last day that players can be
traded and be eligible for the postseason.Gearrin has combined to go 2-1 with a
3.51 ERA and one save in 56 relief appearances this season with Texas and San
Francisco. He began the season with the Giants and was traded to the Rangers in
July.The acquisition adds depth to an already formidable A’s bullpen.“To be able
to go over and be a part of that bullpen http://www.tigersfanproshop.com/authentic-travis-wood-jersey ,
I feel like it’s going to be something special,” Gearrin said Friday in the
