The Mariners came into this game as the major league leaders in home runs, but in the first couple innings of this game, the Yankees looked like the team way out ahead of everyone else in that category. In the first two innings of the game alone, the Yankees hit three home runs off Felix Hernandez. They racked up seven runs in the first three innings, and looked like they might run away with the game.
They didn’t, and Seattle showed their power, hitting a couple home runs off CC Sabathia to make things not quite as comfortable.
