Monday’s outburst against the Mariners (22-18) turned a 2-1 deficit into a 7-2 lead in a hurry off right-hander Emerson Hancock and sent the Yankees to their fifth win in their past six games. They have scored 39 runs through their first four games of this trip, the first three in the A’s Triple-A, wind-impacted ballpark.

Seattle added a run in the seventh inning when Randy Arozarena doubled and Dylan Moore blooped an RBI single in front of Judge. Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh demolished a two-run homer in the eighth and Yankees shortstop matched it with a two-run blast of his own in the ninth.

PITCHING PROBABLES: Yankees: Max Fried (6-0, 1.05 ERA, 0.91 WHIP, 47 strikeouts); Mariners: Bryan Woo (4-1, 3.25 ERA, 0.93 WHIP, 44 strikeouts) BOTTOM LINE: The Seattle Mariners look to stop their four-game losing streak when they take on the New York Yankees.

Leadoff hitter Trent Grisham homered twice Monday and now trails Judge by just two home runs for the team lead with 12. Austin Wells (eight home runs) and Anthony Volpe also went deep, as the Yankees continue to lead the majors with 74 home runs through 41 games.

Yankees' radio broadcaster Dave Sims took off the weekend series in West Sacramento so he could go to Seattle early and catch up with friends from his previous job, bringing out an interesting response from WFAN host Boomer Esiason.
