- SEA: 0
- NYY: 5
The New York Yankees delivered a complete performance against the Seattle Mariners on May 23, 2024, cruising to a 5–0 win at Yankee Stadium. New York combined overpowering pitching with timely power and disciplined at-bats to secure the shutout, further reinforcing their position in a competitive American League East. Seattle, meanwhile, was limited to three hits and could never mount sustained pressure.
Pitching Dominance: Luis Gil’s Masterclass
Luis Gil set the tone with another breakout outing. The Yankees’ right-hander overwhelmed Seattle across 6.1 scoreless innings, allowing just one hit with two walks and eight strikeouts (96 pitches, 65 strikes). Gil’s lively fastball and late-breaking off-speed mix kept the Mariners off balance all night, generating weak contact and a steady stream of empty swings.
The bullpen finished the job, highlighted by a four-out save from Clay Holmes, who struck out two and preserved the combined three-hitter. It was a crisp, efficient effort that underscored New York’s depth on the mound.
Offensive Firepower: Yankees’ Bats Come Alive
New York’s lineup paired patience with punch. Giancarlo Stanton opened the scoring in the second inning with a towering solo blast to center (445 feet per Statcast), and Aaron Judge followed in the third with a 414-foot solo homer to extend the lead. In the seventh, the Yankees broke the game open: Juan Soto lined an RBI single, then Alex Verdugo and Anthony Rizzo added sacrifice flies to cap a three-run frame.
Judge reached base four times (2-for-2, HR, 2 BB) to pace the offense, while Anthony Volpe continued to spark the top of the order with two hits. The blend of power and situational hitting was exactly what New York needed to put the game out of reach.
