Oakland's Chris Coghlan had never seen the unorthodox sidearm delivery of right-hander Steve Cishek from the batter's box until Friday night. He quickly found a view he liked, watching the ball find the seats in right field. "I've never faced him. He's a great closer. I've seen him. It's not a comfortable at-bat," Coghlan said. "I felt like it's a grind facing him because he tried to backdoor a couple of sliders and then tried to sneak one in. I don't know if he pulled it or if they were trying to get me frozen on the ball in but I was grateful I was able to hit a homer." Coghlan hit a solo home run with one out in the top of the ninth inning to give the Athletics a 3-2 win over Seattle and spoil the Mariners' home opener.
