    After Jarrod Parker and Chris Tillman waged a magnificent pitching duel for eight innings, it became apparent that a tense matchup between the Oakland Athletics and Baltimore Orioles was going to be decided by each team's bullpen.

    Coco Crisp had a say in the matter, too.

    Crisp hit a tiebreaking homer off Darren O'Day leading off the ninth, providing Oakland with a 2-1 victory Saturday and handing Parker his eighth straight win.
