Coco Crisp and Matt Carson each hit solo home runs to back Brett Anderson as the Oakland Athletics beat the Seattle Mariners 6-2 Monday. Anderson (4-6) won for the first time in five starts since Aug. 4. He ended a four-game losing streak that matched the longest of his career. Crisp homered in the first, Oakland's first leadoff homer of the season. It was the third leadoff home run of Crisp's career and his first since Aug. 18, 2003, against Tampa Bay. Oakland has won six in a row at home against the Mariners. For the M's Center fielder Franklin Gutierrez, who returned to the lineup after missing two games because of the flu, provided the Mariners with their first a run -- a leadoff home run in the seventh inning -- and set up the second with a ninth-inning double. Jose Lopez batted in Gutierrez.
