SEATTLE (AP) — Leo Rivas scored on Justin Turner’s fielder’s-choice grounder to lift the Seattle Mariners over the Oakland Athletics 7-6 in 10 innings on Saturday night.

Seattle Mariners 7, Oakland Athletics 6 (10 innings): Box score

Pinch-runner Rivas avoided Shea Langeliers’ tag attempt at the plate with a wide slide, giving Seattle its third straight win and 11th victory in its final at-bat of the season.

“That’s not exactly what I was trying to do up there,” pinch-hitter Turner said of his grounder to second. “But (hitting coach Edgar Martinez) talks about it all the time, just trying to get a good pitch and hit it hard somewhere, move the ball forward and make things happen.”

The Mariners’ comeback win — their 32nd of the season — came with nothing on the line after the team was eliminated from postseason contention midweek. But the teams traded late leads and Luke Raley rallied the Mariners twice for their seventh win in their last nine games.

First, Julio Rodríguez scored from first base on Raley’s double into the left-field corner for a 4-3 lead in the seventh inning. Then he hit a two-run homer to right field to tie it 6-6 in the ninth. His 22nd homer came after Langeliers had put the A’s up 6-4 in the top of the inning with a three-run homer.

“It’s the big leagues,” Raley said of his motivation. “Not everybody gets to do this. I will never take a day for granted.”

Eduard Bazardo (2-0) earned the win and Scott Alexander (1-3) took the loss.

Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh hit his 92nd career homer in the fourth inning, tying him with Los Angeles Dodgers and New York Mets Hall of Famer Mike Piazza for most home runs through the first four years of a career for catchers. That also ties Alvin Davis’ team record. Ninety of the 92 homers came after the switch hitter’s first year in the majors.

Josh Rojas added a two-run single later in the inning to put Seattle up 3-0.

Emerson Hancock, a rookie right-hander making his 12th start after being called up from Triple-A Tacoma, walked four batters. He struck out three and gave up five hits in 5 1/3 innings. But he started the fifth by putting Max Schuemann on base, then one out later Brent Rocker hit his 39th homer to cut the Mariners’ lead to 3-2.

“You can kind of see him emerging and taking on that responsibility (of clubhouse leadership), which is awesome,” A’s manager Mark Kotsay said. “I hope that tomorrow works out for him and he gets that 40th homer.”

Tyler Soderstrom tied it in the sixth with a solo shot to the left-field corner.

TRAINER’S ROOM

Mariners RHP Bryce Miller was moved to the 15-day injured list with a blister on his right index finger. The move opened a roster spot for Hancock. Miller was 12-8 and led the majors with nine starts of 6-plus scoreless innings. He’s the first Mariners starter with an ERA lower than 3.99 (2.94) and a WHIP below 1.00 (0.98) since Félix Hernández in 2014.

UP NEXT

Seattle RHP Logan Gilbert (8-12, 3.33 ERA) faces Oakland RHP Mitch Spence (8-9, 4.35) to close out the season.

SEATTLE – Elysian Brewing’s annual “Great Pumpkin Weigh-Off” was unexpectedly canceled today in Seattle’s Georgetown neighborhood. Instead, the brewery’s taproom became the site of a union rally as employees protested what they call unfair labor practices by Elysian’s parent company, Anheuser-Busch InBev.

Teamsters carried signs and chanted slogans accusing AB InBev of stalling negotiations on Elysian Brewing workers’ first-ever union contract. 

Employees, represented by Teamsters Local 117, claim the multinational company has spent the past year refusing to bargain in good faith. FOX 13 spoke with Shannon Mullins, who is a lead technician at Elysian. She says AB InBev has larger breweries that have been unionized for years. 

“They’re trying to say we do different work because we’re a craft brewery,” said Mullins. “Its an industry that alot of people think is cool to work in and everything but its hard work, its dangerous, its dirty and we deserve to be in a union.”

Typically, the “Great Pumpkin Weigh-Off” draws growers from all over. Elysian has not confirmed the rally prompted the cancelation. FOX 13 has reached out for comment. 

Elysian is still looking forward to next weekend’s main event, the ‘Great Pumpkin Beer Festival’ scheduled for Friday and Saturday. At this point, all tickets have sold out.

There have been plenty of encouraging trends for the Seattle Seahawks during their 3-0 start under new head coach Mike Macdonald.

Klatt: Why Seahawks coach Mike Macdonald isn’t just a defensive guru

Through the first three weeks, there’s one trend that has particularly impressed Seahawks Radio Network analysts Ray Roberts and Dave Wyman: The ability for Seattle’s coaching staff to make successful in-game adjustments.

Roberts, a former NFL offensive lineman, elaborated Thursday on Seattle Sports’ Bump and Stacy.

“When things have started out pretty ugly and they have a plan that doesn’t seem to be working, they can go deeper into their bag and find the things that do work so that you can win the games,” Roberts said. “… I feel like in the past, there’s been times when the game plan isn’t working, but there’s no adjustment. It just seems like you just kind of banged your head against the wall trying to make it work.

“And these dudes have been able to come out and go like, ‘OK, that didn’t look the way we thought it was going to look, or that’s not working the way we thought it was going to work, so we’re going to try this other thing.’ And those other things have been working.”

Wyman, a former NFL linebacker, shared a similar perspective Thursday on Seattle Sports’ Wyman and Bob.

“One of my favorite things about this team so far is their ability to adapt within a game,” Wyman said. “(The Seahawks) under Pete (Carroll), lots of good seasons. … But I just felt like once something went wrong, it was gonna go wrong all game. And this team has (shown) an ability to change things.”

In Week 1, Seattle’s offensive line struggled mightily in pass protection during a disastrous first half. After the break, the Seahawks pivoted to a run-heavy attack that resulted in a big day from running back Kenneth Walker III and a 17-point second half that helped them pull away.

In Week 2, Seattle got burned early on by New England tight end Hunter Henry, who had seven catches for 98 yards in the first half. After the break, the Seahawks held him to just one catch for 11 yards. Seattle also struggled against the Patriots’ rushing attack for much of the game, but came up with a massive third-and-1 run stop in overtime that helped lead to the victory.

And in Week 3, after the Seahawks’ offense grew stagnant in the second and third quarters, Geno Smith began heavily targeting the tight ends. That helped Seattle’s offense gain some traction, and on the ensuing drive, Smith led a game-sealing 98-yard touchdown march the put the game away.

“For them to be able to make those types of adjustments on offense and defense, that’s stuff that you can hang your hat on,” Roberts said. “Those are people that are recognizing what’s happening, understanding what needs to get done and then being willing to come off of what they had planned to do, to go to something that’s going to put the team in a better position to win.”

And though halftime adjustments can certainly be beneficial, Wyman explained that it’s even more valuable if a coaching staff can make adjustments on the sidelines during the game.

“People on TV would always say, ‘Oh, it’s the halftime adjustment,’” Wyman said. “But as a player, you go in, you’ve gotta check with the trainer and then a coach draws something up on the board, and like three minutes later you’ve gotta go back out.

“But if you’re able to do that stuff on the sidelines where all the bombs are going off around you, then that’s where it’s really valuable. And I think that’s where they have really improved. And that’s the coaching staff.”
