OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) - Trevor Cahill allowed two hits and struck out 10 in 7 2-3 innings and Daric Barton had three doubles and matched his career high with four RBIs and the Athletics earned a 5-0 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates on Saturday night.
Cahill (7-2) walked three and struck out a career-high 10 as the A's won two in a row for the first time since winning four straight May 26-29.
Kurt Suzuki homered as the A's remained unbeaten in eight games against the Pirates.
Daniel McCutchen (0-3), recalled earlier in the day to replace Zach Duke, lasted six innings. He gave up four runs and seven hits, walking two and striking out two.
Cahill retired 19 of 21 hitters until tiring in the eighth. He gave up a leadoff single to Lastings Milledge and walked Jose Tabata with two outs before Craig Breslow ended the threat by retiring Andy LaRoche.
The Pirates lost their 16th consecutive road game and have lost 17 of 19 overall.
Coco Crisp singled twice, walked and scored three runs and is hitting .438 since coming off the disabled list Tuesday.
It was 1970s Turn Back the Clock Game with both teams wearing flashy uniforms from the 70s, with the A's in bright yellow and green and the Pirates in black and gold. Pittsburgh even dusted off its famed pillbox caps. The Pirates and A's were dominant teams in the 70s, combining for five World Series titles.
Barton had an RBI double in the first, a two-run double in the double and another run-scoring double in the seventh.
Suzuki hit his ninth home run of the season in the fifth, a solo shot with two outs.
