SEATTLE - Shea Langeliers hit a tiebreaking double with two outs in the 10th inning and the Athletics held off the Seattle Mariners 2-1 on Saturday night.
The Athletics, who mustered five hits, also scored in the fourth when Darell Hernaiz drove in Jacob Wilson with a single.
Randy Arozarena tied it for the Mariners in the sixth with his career-best 24th home run. His previous high was 23 in 2023 with Tampa Bay.
Seattle fell three games behind first-place Houston in the AL West but holds a three-game advantage over Kansas City for the final American League wild card.
Tyler Ferguson (3-2) pitched 1 1/3 hitless innings for the win. Hogan Harris entered with two runners aboard in the 10th and got two outs for his second save.
Harris got J.P. Crawford to ground into a fielder's choice, then walked Cole Young to load the bases before Arozarena grounded into a game-ending force play.
A total of five A's pitchers combined to allow just three hits.
Wilson had two hits for the Athletics. He returned Friday from a 23-game stay on the injured list and leads major league rookies with 118 hits.
Victor Robles, activated from the 60-day injured list by the Mariners on Saturday and eligible to play while he appeals a 10-game suspension for throwing his bat at a pitcher in a minor league game last Sunday, got the start in right field. He went 1 for 4.
Key moment
Colby Thomas was the automatic runner at second base to start the 10th. He went to third on a sacrifice bunt by pinch-hitter Brett Harris, but remained there when Nick Kurtz grounded out. Langeliers then looped a double toward right field that dropped fair, scoring Thomas.
Key stat
The game-time temperature of 84 degrees was the hottest at T-Mobile Park since July 15, 2023, when it also was 84 at the start of a Tigers-Mariners game.
Up next
The Athletics send LHP Jacob Lopez (7-6, 3.28 ERA) to the mound Sunday against RHP Logan Gilbert (3-5, 3.83) to wrap up the season series between the teams.
