Mariners rookie Bryan Woo had six strikeouts over five sharp innings in a successful homecoming, and Seattle pulled even for the third AL wild card by beating the last-place Oakland Athletics 5-0 on Monday night.
José Caballero homered for the first time in two months, and J.P. Crawford walked three times and delivered an RBI single to help the Mariners win the opener of their final road trip.
Woo was born in Oakland and attended high school in nearby Alameda. A sixth-round draft pick in 2021 who made his major league debut June 3, the 23-year-old righty allowed three hits and overcame four walks to win back-to-back starts for the first time this season. Tayler Saucedo, Justin Topa, Trent Thornton and Isaiah Campbell each retired three batters to complete the five-hitter. Oakland was shut out for the 15th time this season.
Seattle left the bases loaded in the first but then broke through against starter JP Sears in the second. Sam Haggerty reached on a leadoff single, moved to second on a groundout and scored when Crawford blooped a 1-2 pitch into right field.
