Yankees 3, Mariners 4: Shaky seventh undoes strong start, clutch homers

Yesterday, Madison recapped the dumbest game of the year, and while today’s didn’t quite overtake that title, it’s certainly in the next tier of dumb games. The Yankees only scored in one inning, Nestor Cortes was brilliant but the lead was squandered by a guy who shouldn’t be on the roster, and the Yankees lost the game, and the series, with a 4-3 final score.

For a moment there, I thought Nestor Cortes was going to make some history. He didn’t give up a hit until the sixth inning, a solo shot off the bat of Sam Haggerty.
