OAKLAND, Calif. — Cal Raleigh hit a two-run homer in the first inning and added a sacrifice fly in the fifth, Julio Rodríguez also connected, and the Seattle Mariners beat the Athletics 6-4 on Thursday in their final scheduled visit to the Coliseum. Luke Raley added a two-run shot in the ninth for key insurance as the Mariners closed within 4 1/2 games of the Houston Astros in the American League West standings. Bryan Woo struck out six and didn't walk a batter over five innings to win in his native Bay Area a 10-minute drive from where he grew up in Alameda.
