M's 5, Yankees 2 (9/7/08) [Update]

Just changing up a few things with the minor league seasons wrapped up in the Mariner system. Some ex-Rattlers in the Seattle lineup today as they beat the Yankees 5-2.

Ex-Rattlers:
Ryan Feierabend ('04): 7IP, 5H, 2R, 3BB, 4K (Winning Pitcher)
JJ Putz ('00): IP, H, 0R, 0BB, 2K (Save)
Wladimir Balentien ('04): 0-for-4, 3K
Bryan LaHair ('04): 0-for-3, K

Ex-Appleton Fox:
Raul Ibanez ('94): 1-for-4 RBI

I'll add in the game story in the morning.

UPDATE: And here it is.

"It's big. It's very encouraging," Mariners manager Jim Riggleman said. "Every organization wants to have homegrown guys go out and perform. Morrow, Rowland-Smith and Feierabend did that. It's great to see young pitchers go deep in the game, especially against a team like the Yankees. You have a ray of hope for the future."

Seattle (56-86, 4th AL West)
