Charlotte, NC (SportsNetwork.com) - The Carolina Panthers have placed linebacker Chase Blackburn on injured reserve, one of several moves the team announced on Tuesday. Blackburn missed the last two games with a knee injury and ends the season with only 12 tackles and one forced fumble in six games. The Panthers also signed offensive tackle Mike Remmers to the active roster from the St. Louis Rams practice squad, promoted safety Robert Lester from their own practice squad and waived running back Darrin Reaves. Reaves had 77 yards on 32 carries and caught five passes for 31 yards in six games, but DeAngelo Williams pending return resulted in his removal from the 53-man roster. Williams is expected to play Thursday against the New Orleans Saints after missing four games with an ankle injury.

Paxton carried a shutout into the eighth inning and the Seattle Mariners held off a late rally by Oakland for a 6-5 win Tuesday night, handing the Athletics their fifth loss in six games. "This young mans got greatness written all over him, hes just got to stay healthy," manager Lloyd McClendon said. "I thought it was a dominant performance." Paxton (5-1) gave up three hits through the seventh. Ahead 6-0, he was chased in Oaklands three-run eighth, and the As nearly got even in a harried ninth. Seattle closer Fernando Rodney took over with a 6-3 lead and retired the first two batters. He then gave up consecutive doubles to Derek Norris and pinch-hitters Brandon Moss and Sam Fuld before retiring Josh Reddick on a grounder for his 40th save. The As remained 4 1/2 games back of the first-place Angels, who lost at Houston. Seattle is third in the AL wild-card standings. Oakland didnt seem too concerned afterward. "No matter what inning you score in, it was a one-run game. Were one swing of the bat away from winning it," Norris said. "They didnt score for seven innings either. Thats why you play all nine innings." The rubber game Wednesday afternoon between the division rivals and playoff contenders has the makings of quite a pitchers duel. In a matchup of 13-game winners, Seattle ace Felix Hernandez faces Jon Lester. Paxton allowed two runs and four hits in 7 2-3 innings. He improved to 8-1 with a 1.77 ERA in 12 career starts. "I was just going at them with my fastball. They werent making the adjustment and they were hitting groundballs and hitting it right at guys, so I just kept on pounding away," Paxton said. "They got themselves out." Sonny Gray (13-8) gave up six runs and seven hits in five innings. He is 1-5 in seven outings since his 5-0 July earned him the AL Pitcher of the Month award. Gray came in 4-0 with a 1.10 ERA in his first five starts against the Mariners. "I thought he pitched better than the numbers would suggest," manager Bob Melvin said..dddddddddddd Kyle Seager hit a two-run homer that helped the Mariners build a 6-0 lead.

Craig Gentry added a two-run double for his third hit. Endy Chavez hit a two-run double in the fourth that slowly chopped through the middle of the infield. With second baseman Alberto Callaspo in shallow centre trying to make a play, shortstop Jed Lowrie was late moving toward the bag and Chavez had already begun sliding into second and no throw was made. Austin Jackson hit a two-run single in the third. Seager homered in the fifth, Grays final inning. "Hes definitely one of those guys you have your hands full with," Seager said.

His 151 innings are his most since 173 in 2007 with San Diego. "We actually talked yesterday.
