New York Yankees (71-43) at Seattle Mariners (60-54)
(L) CC Sabathia (12-7) vs. (R) Ian Snell (0-0)
The Yankees have beaten the Mariners in 11 of the last 14 meetings, but have had problems in Seattle, just 2-5 in their last 7 games at Safeco Field. Then again, CC Sabathia (12-7, 3.76) will try to win his third straight start. The right-hander is 4-1 with a 2.83 ERA in seven starts at Safeco Field.
New York has won nine of their last 10 games and their high scoring offense could be tough on Seattle's struggling veteran Ian Snell (0-0, 6.14). The right-hander was dreadful last Saturday, allowed three runs on two hits and six walks in just 1 1/3 innings against the Rays. Snell will make his first start against the NY Yankees. Go with the hot Yanks with CC Sabathia on the hill.
