Yanks Lose 7-0 To Mariners
AP Sports Writer
NEW YORK (AP) – Felix Hernandez followed Cliff Lee with a gem of
his own, pitching a two-hitter, and the Seattle Mariners secured
their first road series win since April with a 7-0 victory over the
New York Yankees on Wednesday night.
Michael Saunders connected for two of the light-hitting
Mariners' four homers to support Hernandez in his third complete
game this season and 10th overall. It was his career fourth shutout
and first since June 16, 2009, at San Diego.
Hernandez (6-5) and Lee are a major reason why the Mariners have
won nine of 12. Lee threw his third straight complete game in a 7-4
win Tuesday night and King Felix, in his third start in a row to go
nine innings, might have been more perplexing to Yankees batters
Wednesday.
