Yankees vs Mariners

We go over how to watch Wednesday's game between the New York Yankees and Seattle Mariners and make some picks.

They were shut out yesterday and the bats in New York are highly unlikely to have two bad days in a row. Over the course of his last three appearances, Ray has tossed 12.2 innings and has given up 11 earned runs. They’ve struggled away from home this season, posting a record of 30-25 outside of the Bronx and 41-15 when in NYC. They’ve split the first two games of this series, losing a 1-0 affair in 13 innings yesterday, but dominating 9-4 on Monday. Cortes has been pretty good lately, allowing just five earned runs in his last 24.1 innings pitched and has a 3-0 record in his last seven outings. The team has won 10 of their last 20 and five of their last 10, so not bad but not great either. New York is in a bit of a slide by their own high standards. The New York Yankees and Seattle Mariners square off on Wednesday with first pitch set for 4:10 p.m. EST.

Therefore, I believe the Yankees have the advantage on the mound and at the plate. New York is second in all of baseball averaging 5.24 runs per game on the road. New York has lost sole possession of the best record in the American League and is tied with the Houston Astros at 71-40 entering play on Wednesday. Seattle increased its playoff chances with the victory. New York’s offense failed to score in the first nine innings and then had the extra runner on second base thrown out on the base paths in all but one of the extra innings. He has also completed at least five innings in each of those appearances. I like the Yankees here. The Yankees offense lost another one of its premiere bats earlier in this series when Matt Carpenter fouled a ball off of his back foot. Ray has allowed a .193 ISO to right-handed hitters this season. He’s been all over the place over his last four starts. In the other two starts, he’s allowed at least four earned runs and failed to pitch past the third inning. The Yankees were on the losing end of the 13-inning affair with the Mariners on Tuesday night. - The New York Yankees and Seattle Mariners renew their regular-season series on Wednesday after a 13-inning marathon game last night.
