We’ll start our 5-game playoff series at home against the New York Yankees. This season we were 7-5 in our 12-games against New York. Against expected starters Ron Guidry, Bill Bonham, and Luis Leal we hit .202, .294, and .237, respectively.

The series could prove to be a slugfest featuring the top run-scoring team in Seattle (812, 2nd in HR’s with 134, 2nd in average, 1st in slugging & OPS) against the top HR hitting team in the Yankees as they blasted 138 for the season. However, the Yankees finished 12th in batting average (.245) to the Mariners 2nd (.273).

On the pitching front, the Yankees boast the 3rd best team ERA (3.36) and starters ERA (3.45) against the Mariners 12th best in both categories (4.02 & 4.35). Both staffs give up a fair amount of homers – 105 for the Yankees (7th) and 118 for the Mariners (13th).
