SEATTLE -- The Seattle Mariners hit fewer home runs than the New York Yankees, but got more scoring out of them. Tyler Thornburg Red Sox Jersey .Mike Zunino and Kyle Seager each hit a three-run homer and Nelson Cruz added a solo shot as the Mariners rallied to beat the Yankees 7-5 Monday night.The Yankees got two homers apiece from rookie catcher Gary Sanchez and Starlin Castro -- all off starter Cody Martin -- but three of them were solo shots.You win by the homer, you die by the homer, Mariners manager Scott Servais said. I think thats the story of tonights game. We had a rough one yesterday and we got some big hits tonight.New York took a 5-3 lead in the sixth inning on a two-run shot by Sanchez, his eighth homer of the season and sixth in the last seven games, and Castros second solo homer, his 17th.Zunino, recalled from Triple-A Tacoma on July 20, answered in the bottom half with his ninth home run -- off Anthony Swarzak (1-2) -- to put Seattle ahead 6-5.We had in the report that he was about a 50 percent slider guy, so I went up there and I knew I was going to get that eventually, Zunino said. I ended up seeing only one fastball. Thats where I step out 3-2 and tell myself to commit to hitting the slider and I was able to get one up in the zone and drive it.Cruz added a solo homer, his 32nd, in the eighth.Nick Vincent (3-3) retired all three batters he faced to get the win. Rookie Edwin Diaz survived a shaky ninth, putting runners on second and third with one out before getting Mark Teixeira on a fly ball and Brett Gardner on a grounder to pick up his 10th save in 10 chances.The Mariners, who gave up four runs in the ninth inning in a 7-6 loss to Milwaukee on Sunday when Diaz was rested, remained one game behind Baltimore for the second American League wild card.Robinson Cano singled to open the bottom of the sixth and Seager drew a one-out walk, chasing starter Michael Pineda. Left-hander Tommy Layne relieved and retired lefty-hitting Adam Lind. Right-hander Swarzak came on but gave up the homer into the right-field seats by the righty-hitting Zunino on a 3-2 pitch.Sanchez, honored as AL Player of the Week earlier in the day, had a solo homer in the first and Castro another in the second to give New York a 2-0 lead. Sanchez also had a single in four at-bats to raise his average to .385 and threw out a runner trying to steal second.Its very tough when you can put a couple runs on the board and hit some home runs but you dont win the game, Sanchez said. Unfortunately, it didnt go our way tonight, tomorrow we have to come back and try to win.Seagers three-run homer put Seattle up 3-2 in the fourth. Seth Smith doubled and moved to third on Canos single. Smith was then caught too far down the line on Cruzs high chopper and was tagged out trying to get back to third. Seager got the green light on a 3-0 pitch and hit his 24th homer over the center-field wall.Its the ultimate hitters count, Seager said. If you get into that count and you get the green light, you can be as picky as you want to be. Fortunately for me there, I got a pitch to hit. Theyre hard to come by off of him (Pineda).Mariners right fielder Shawn OMalley, who came on as a defensive replacement in the seventh, had a sensational catch for the second out of that inning, making a long run into foul territory and reaching over the wall to snag Tyler Austins fly ball, hanging on as he tumbled into the seats.SANCHEZ REMAINS RED HOTOver his last seven games, the Yankees rookie catcher is hitting .560 (14-for-25) with six homers, two doubles, nine RBI, four walks and six runs scored.Its been unbelievable what hes done, the way hes swung the bat, the way hes played defense, the job hes done, Yankees manager Joe Girardi said. He throws another guy out. Hes been extremely impressive.YANKEES STREAK ENDSNew York had won eight consecutive games at Safeco Field since June 8, 2013, tied for the longest winning streak by any visiting team.

Tournament overview Barisal Bulls finished at the bottom of the table, mostly due to their own shortcomings, with batsmen not finding form and dropped catches which in turn affected the bowling.Barisals performance must have particularly irked the franchise owners given they were runners-up in 2015. The period between the two tournaments was marred by a life-ban imposed on one of their owners, but it didnt seem to affect them too much during the players draft.Given his experience in Bangladesh, Barisals acquisition of Dav Whatmore, who replaced Graham Ford as head coach, seemed like the perfect fit. In fact, Barisal started well under Whatmore, winning three of their first four games. But they imploded thereafter to lose their next six games consecutively, ending hopes of qualifying for the knockouts.Mushfiqur Rahim and Shahriar Nafees were their best batsmen, and Dawid Malan sporadically hit form, but their bowling was quite poor. Taijul Islam was their highest wicket-taker, but his 10 wickets didnt figure among the top ten in the tournament.High point Barisals best moment in the tournament came on November 14 when they picked up their third successive win, crushing Chittagong Kings by seven wickets, with Dawiid Malan and Shahriar Nafees hitting half-centuries in a chase of 164. Steven Wright Red Sox Jersey. Low point Fifteen days later, against Comilla, Barisal hit the nadir, losing for the sixth time in as many matches. Barisal looked out of sorts in every department as Comilla chased down their 142 with ease. It was saying a lot, given Comilla were languishing at the bottom at the time.Top of the classMushfiqur Rahim finished yet another successful BPL campaign with 341 runs in 12 matches, at a strike-rate of 134.78. Mushfiqur would also be reasonably happy with his wicketkeeping, but his captaincy record was severely hit by the eight losses.Under-par performerAl-Amin Hossain was one of the top bowlers in the 2015 season, and was one of two players retained by Barisal. However, he only played five games this year and conceded 9.27 an over. BCB also fined him heavily for a serious disciplinary breach, and some introspection may be due.Tip for 2017 Whatmore should continue as coach, unless he takes up a role with an international team, but Barisal will need to rethink most parts of their playing roster.
