Matt Keough, who lost his first 14 decisions last year, won his second game in as many starts as the A's clipped the Mariners, 6-1. The A's sent 11 batters to the plate in a six-run fifth inning. A single by Rob Picciolo drove in the first run and Dave Revering drilled a two-run triple later in the rally. [The Sporting News]
