HIDE’s COMMENTS 🎙 
The Mariners managed A’s catching-up, took the 3rd, and pulled within 4.5 games of the Athletics for the second American League wild card. 
Seattle bullpen had 18 strikeouts. Oakland had 9 pitchers appearance. 

Features📸; 
Khris Davis, #2, hit his MLB-leading 40th homer in the eighth which was for his three straight 40-homer seasons, who is the first person since Jimmie Foxx from 1932-1934 in A’s history. Congratulations!!
