Mariners 8, Oakland 7

Carlos Silva's poor start put the M's down by five, but homers by Branyan and Gutierrez kept them alive. Then Jose Lopez granted 25,000 fans' wishes, when he hit a game-winning single on an at bat that lasted 14 pitches. Box. Next game: Saturday vs. Oakland, 6:10 p.m.; Trevor Cahill vs. Jarrod Washburn.
