This week:
Mariners 5, A's 2
Cahill was brilliant but only able to last 4 and 2/3s before reaching the century mark. Willingham's first inning 2 run bomb was the only offense of the evening. King Felix looked like a Cy Young winner.
Mariners 6, A's 2
The A's wasted another great starting performance from Brett Anderson. The offense was largely silent and poor outings from Breslow and Fuentes combined with a costly Daric Barton error doomed the A's to loss number 2.
A's 7, Mariners 1
After giving up a solo shot to Ryan Langerhans, Gio Gonzalez was brilliant for 7 innings. Jerry Blevins finished things off nicely. The sun helped out a couple times, but it looked like the A's understood how to play baseball.
1-2 is not the best way to start the season, but hopefully the cobwebs have now been dusted off. And in good news, the A's are undefeated in their Gold Jerseys!
