A's make 4 errors in 7-2 loss to Mariners

SEATTLE (AP) — The Oakland Athletics had their worst defensive effort in their error-filled season.

Robinson Cano had three hits and an RBI, and the Seattle Mariners took advantage of Oakland's season-high four errors in a 7-2 victory over the Athletics on Saturday night.

Seattle scored five runs on Oakland's most errors since Aug. 22, 2012, against Minnesota. The Athletics, who lead the majors with 32 miscues, have committed at least one in each of the past seven games — 11 in total. Those errors have contributed to giving up 20 unearned runs.

"We're making some young mistakes," A's manager Bob Melvin said.
