Yankees eye season-high fourth straight win

May 24, 2008 - 12:40 PM Seattle (18-31) at NY Yankees (23-25) 1:05 pm EDT

BRONX, New York (Ticker) - The New York Yankees look to run their winning streak to a season-high four games on Saturday when they continue a three-game set with the Seattle Mariners.

While New York entered this series on a two-game winning streak, it had lost six of its previous nine contests before Friday's 13-2 rout of Seattle.

The loss was more of the same for Seattle, which suffered a three-game series at Detroit earlier this week and was outscored 30-14 in that series. Seattle has lost 17 of 22 overall, and 11 of its last 12 road games.

Mike Mussina (6-4, 4.11 ERA) will pitch on three days rest for the Yankees, in place of Chien-Ming Wang - the sinkerballer's start was pushed back to Sunday due to strained calf.

Mussina was unable to even make it out of the first inning in Tuesday's 12-2 setback to the Baltimore Orioles, surrendering seven runs - one earned - and five hits in just two-thirds of an inning.

Seattle's Carlos Silva (3-3, 4.91) also will be pitching on short rest in place of Felix Hernandez, who was scratched with soreness in his right leg. Silva is winless over his last six starts.
