New York Yankees Come Up Short Against M’s, Cano Shines

After a solid 4-3 victory on Friday night, the New York Yankees fall to the Seattle Mariners by the same score on Saturday afternoon.

The game on Saturday afternoon between the New York Yankees and the Seattle Mariners came down to one simple narrative.

It became the “revenge of Robbie Cano.”

Cano, former Yankee second-baseman, smacked a pair of two-run round-trippers. Both came against starter Michael Pineda (first and sixth innings).

The lone power generated by the Yanks came in the form of Brian McCann. He hit a two-run shot in the fourth inning.
