Game 3:
Paxton vs. McCarthy

Mariners took a early lead in the first, scoring three runs. They also added 2 in the 5th to make it 5-0. The Yankees scored one run in the 5th as well to make it 5-1. In the 7th, Cano homered to make it 6-1 M's.

A home run by Chase Headley made it 6-2 and Farquhar shut the door for the win.

Mariners are now only down 1-3, and in game 4, will send Roenis Elias to the mound against former Mariner Michael Pineda.

Game 4:
Elias/Pineda

Mariners score a total of 6 runs in the first two inning to make it 6-0 after two. In the third, the Yankees tally a run to make it 6-1. However, after a 5-run 6th inning, it's tied 6-6 going into the 7th inning.

The Yankees add a run in the 7th and going into the 8th it's 7-6 Yankees. However, a home run from Kyke Seager makes it 7-7 going into the 9th. In the 9th, a Leadoff triple from Austin Jackson and a sac fly from Cano make it 8-7 M's going into the bottom of the 9th. Rodney came in, got three outs, and shot his arrow off as the Mariners tie the series up at two games a piece.

Game 5 will feature Blake Beavan making his playoff debut as he'll face off against CC Sabathia in a pivotal game 5. If we win, game six will be Felix's. If we lose, we'll hand the ball to Iwakuma for game 6 and Felix would pitch in game 7.
