Seattle beat Oakland at Safeco Field, eking out a 5-4 win. The win was due in large part to pitcher Rob Whalen, who earned player of the game honors. Edubray Ramos recorded the save for Seattle, his 5th of the season. Oakland, at 9-21, is off to a poor start in 2018.

Ben Revere, who is tied for 4th in the AL with a .357 batting average, aided the Seattle cause with a run-scoring single in the bottom of the fifth. For the game, the left fielder was 2 for 3 with 2 singles.

"If I go out there and help the team win, that's all you can do," said Whalen.
