Andrew McCutchen lost his luggage but found his batting stroke.When the New York Yankees arrived at the team hotel Thursday in Seattle after a charter flight from San Francisco http://www.jaguarscheapstore.com/leonard-fournette-jersey-cheap , McCutchen’s bags were missing.“They couldn’t find it. It ended up being here at the ballpark,” McCutchen said of his luggage, which was brought from Safeco Field to his hotel room about 8 p.m. on Thursday’s off day.Article continues below ...“I was just chilling in my robe the majority of the day, really,” McCutchen said.As for the batting stroke?After flying out to center field in his first at-bat Friday, making him 1-for-17 with the Yankees since being acquired Aug. 31 from San Francisco, McCutchen came up in the third inning with a runner on against Mariners left-hander James Paxton and hit a two-run shot to left-center field. It was his first home run for the Yankees.“I felt awesome. It’s the sixth game for me here, but it feels good to get a big hit like that,” McCutchen said after New York’s 4-0 victory. “I just hope something like that will get you going and start throwing the hits out there after that.”McCutchen led off Saturday’s 4-2 victory with a home run off longtime Seattle ace Felix Hernandez and will try to extend the streak Sunday in the series finale at Safeco Field.Yankees manager Aaron Boone said he felt good about the contact McCutchen made in his first at-bat Friday and mentioned that to the outfielder on the bench.“I think the at-bats have been good from him,” Boone said. “We’ve seen him obviously take some walks Youth Myles Jack Jersey , and that’s been something he’s done all year (and) really throughout his career.”McCutchen said he wasn’t discouraged during his 1-for-17 stretch.“Because overall, I was having good swings, taking good passes at balls and grinding out at-bats,” McCutchen said. “Overall, I wasn’t frustrated. Just matter of time when the hits will fall.”The Yankees will not only be going after a sweep of the three-game series Sunday but also a season sweep. They defeated the Mariners three straight times in June in New York.Left-hander CC Sabathia (7-6, 3.54 ERA) is scheduled to start against Mariners right-hander Erasmo Ramirez (2-3, 5.56). Sabathia is 14-6 with a 2.57 ERA in 28 career starts against Seattle, including 10-1 in 14 appearances at Safeco Field. He’s 7-0 with a 1.13 ERA in his past eight starts in Seattle, allowing one or fewer runs in seven of them. Ramirez is 2-2 with a 3.66 ERA in 17 career appearances against the Yankees. In four starts, he’s 2-0 with a 1.13 ERA.The Mariners have scored three or fewer runs in five of their past six games http://www.jaguarscheapstore.com/myles-jack-jersey-cheap , dropping 7 1/2 games behind Oakland in the race for the American League’s second and final wild-card berth.“It’s a broken record, it really is,” Mariners manager Scott Servais said of the offensive futility. “Some nights it’s a good pitcher, other nights we’re just not squaring the ball up. Unfortunately, the timing of this (slump) is pretty bad.” BOSTON (AP) — Red Sox ace Chris Sale and manager Alex Cora both made early exits in Boston’s 7-2 loss to Houston in Game 1 of AL Championship Series on Saturday night.Sale lasted just four innings, giving up two runs, one hit, four walks and a hit batter.Cora wasn’t far behind the lanky left-hander going back to the clubhouse. The rookie manager was ejected in the bottom of the fifth inning with the game tied 2-2 after arguing a called third strike on Andrew Benintendi that ended Boston’s first rally of the game.“You can’t argue balls and strikes, and I did,” Cora said. “It’s kind of like embarrassing that it happens in the playoffs. That wasn’t cool watching the game in the clubhouse. … But sometimes you got to do what you got to do Youth Yannick Ngakoue Jersey , and you’ve got to defend your players.”Sale opened the game with an eight-pitch walk to George Springer and struggled through the first three innings with subpar stuff and location.“I just went out there and lost it for a little bit,” Sale said.Houston took advantage in the second. Sale got two quick outs, but then walked Carlos Correa, plunked Martin Maldonado on the hand with a fastball and walked Josh Reddick. Springer followed with a hard grounder past the glove of third baseman Eduardo Nunez for a go-ahead, two-run single. An error by Nunez led to the Astros‘ tiebreaking run for a 3-2 lead in the sixth.Sale decided to go sleeveless despite a 48-degree temperature at first pitch, and it took too long for his fastball to heat up. His velocity has been a focus since a shoulder issue landed him on the disabled list in August. He returned in September but averaged just 90 mph in his final regular-season tuneup, well below his standard.He jumped back up to about 95 mph in two effective outings against the Yankees in the Division Series, but was sitting a relatively sluggish 90-93 mph on Saturday.His control was shaky, too, even as he perhaps took something off his fastball and slider after falling behind in counts. He threw one pitch behind Alex Bregman http://www.jaguarscheapstore.com/yannick-ngakoue-jersey-cheap , and all four of his walks came in the first two innings.Sale had just two swings and misses among 69 pitches in the first three innings before finding a groove with four among 17 pitches in the fourth. Cora then pulled Sale, who struck out Correa and Maldonado to end his outing, raising his strikeouts total to five.“It’s just one of those things that happen,” Sale said. “Sometimes you get out there and you’re just battling yourself. That was definitely the case.”The 29-year-old allowed five hits and two earned runs, striking out nine over 6 1/3 innings in his ALDS Game 1 win over Yankees. He also came on in relief with a perfect eighth inning during Game 4.Saturday night’s start harkened back to the rough outing he had in his postseason debut in Game 1 of last season’s Division Series against Houston. Sale gave up seven earned runs in five innings, yielding a pair of home runs to Jose Altuve and another to Bregman in a loss.Sale came on in a relief appearance in Game 4 of that series, as well, holding the Astros scoreless through four innings before allowing two runs in Boston’s season-ending Game 4 loss.Cora stuck around long enough to pull Sale and use Mitch Moreland as a pinch hitter in the fifth, then was tossed while protecting Benintendi.There were two outs, two on and two runs already in when Justin Verlander threw a 98 mph fastball to Benintendi near the outside edge of the zone for strike three. Benintendi slammed his helmet and bat down and pleaded his case with plate umpire James Hoye before Red Sox coaches ran to get between them.Cora continued to yell from the dugout and was tossed by Hoye. Cora gave the lineup card to bench coach Ron Roenicke and walked down the tunnel into the clubhouse.“Andrew didn’t agree. I didn’t agree Authentic Patrick Mahomes Jersey ,” Cora said of the strike call. “It’s a big pitch right there. It’s ball four, bases loaded. … Most likely Verlander comes out of the game.”Instead, Houston took a 3-2 lead in the sixth and it remained that way until the ninth, when Brandon Workman gave up two homers and four runs while getting one out. Cora didn’t want to use closer Craig Kimbrel with Boston trailing.“A couple of calls went against us,” right fielder Mookie Betts said. “But I think we have to dial it back and just understand that they not perfect. … We’re missing some good pitches.”
