The Seattle Mariners are in the thick of a hyper-competitive AL Wild Card race, but they've had two baserunning blunders to forget against the Yankees. The first was Victor Robles trying to steal home on a 3-0 count earlier this week.

The Astros lost their series finale in San Diego on Wednesday, but woke up Thursday morning with their five-game lead in the American League West intact after the Mariners fell to the Yankees 2-1 in extra innings courtesy of a strange baserunning mistake by Julio Rodriguez.

Julio Rodriguez apologized to Dan Wilson for his mistake, the Mariners manager said Thursday. “I really respect him for that, and we had a good conversation.”
