SEATTLE -- The Yankees have a legitimate chance of hitting more homers than any other team in history, and some of that muscle appeared at an opportune moment on Saturday evening. Austin Romine belted a tiebreaking home run to support Lance Lynn's solid start as the Yankees defeated the Mariners, 4-2, at Safeco Field.
Romine's career-high 10th homer made him the 10th Yankee to reach double digits, one shy of a Major League record shared by four clubs, including last year's World Series champion Astros. The seventh-inning blast came off reliever Nick Vincent after Andrew McCutchen opened the night with his second homer in as many games, off starter Felix Hernandez.
