236-Game Streak Snapped: Yankees Rally Past Mariners

The New York Yankees made history by snapping a 236-game streak of teams failing to come back from deficits of 5 or more runs, as they rallied past the Seattle Mariners 6-5 in extra innings. The team’s comeback was led by Bryan Woo, who took a no-hitter into the 8th inning and finished with a career-best 7 innings pitched, striking out 5 and walking 2.

The Yankees’ victory marked their 4th straight win after a 2nd 6-game skid since mid-June. The team’s confidence was boosted by teammates’ at-bats, as they were previously 0-35 when trailing through 8 innings and 0-23 when trailing by 3+ runs this season.

The game saw Aaron Judge hit a sacrifice fly to score the winning run in the 10th inning, while Mariners closer Muoz blew his 6th save in 27 chances this season.
