They rallied from behind twice, but a three-run Yankee eighth off the usually reliable Sean White put the Mariners away. The Brandon Morrow experiment continued to deliver inconclusive results, with Morrow going just 4.2 IP and walking 5 batters. Chris Woodward, replacing Beltre at 3B, made two errors on the same play on the first ball hit to him. M's 39-37, 3.5 GB. Box score. Next game Wednesday @ NYY, 4:05 p.m.; Washburn vs. Pettitte.

Tuesdays are Muppet Days


Morrow needs to spend more time with the pitching coach cause his mechanics are off. His control is nuts and he doesn't appear to be able to throw strikes with any consistency.
