    Felix Hernandez sweated out most of the last three innings innings from the dugout, watching the seven-run lead he once held on the mound dissolve.

    For a change, though, King Felix had room for error.

    Chone Figgins finished a home run short of the cycle and every Seattle Mariners starter had a hit, overcoming a shaky outing from Hernandez and a late rally to beat the Oakland Athletics 8-7 on Saturday night. The drama was more than enough for the 2010 AL Cy Young Award to bear.
