SEATTLE -- Mariners' ace left-hander James Paxton might have had the best pitching night of his career Wednesday, but it was the Athletics who had the final bat flip.
Mark Canha led off the ninth inning with laser-beam home run over the left-field scoreboard, and the Athletics snapped a three-game losing streak with a 3-2 victory at Safeco Field.
Canha jumped on Mariners closer Edwin Diaz's first pitch, a 95 mph fastball, and it got out in a hurry for his fifth home run of the season.
