Yankees Beat Mariners 9-6: Chisholm Homers Twice, Schlittler Wins Debut

Wednesday, July 9th, 2025

Jazz Chisholm Jr. homered twice and drove in four runs, and Cam Schlittler won his impressive major league debut as the New York Yankees beat the Seattle Mariners 9-6 on Wednesday night.

Yankees Offensive Highlights

Jasson Domínguez had three hits, including an RBI single, and Aaron Judge added a two-run double to help the Yankees overcome four Seattle homers. New York has won three straight following its second six-game losing streak since mid-June.

Cody Bellinger and Giancarlo Stanton had consecutive RBI singles off rookie Logan Evans (3-3) before Chisholm capped a three-run first with a run-scoring groundout. Bellinger extended his hitting streak to 14 games.

Pitching Performances

One of the team's top-rated prospects, Schlittler (1-0) was called up from the minors to start in place of injured Clarke Schmidt. The 24-year-old right-hander froze big league home run leader Cal Raleigh with a 100 mph fastball for his first strikeout and was charged with three runs on four hits in 5 1/3 innings.

Schlittler walked two and struck out seven, ending his outing with another strikeout of Raleigh before leaving to a standing ovation as his parents hugged in the Yankee Stadium stands.

Yankees reliever Jonathan Loáisiga gave up a two-run shot to Randy Arozarena on his first pitch and a two-run drive to No. 9 batter Cole Young on his last.

Luke Weaver struck out three in 1 2/3 hitless innings and Devin Williams whiffed two in a perfect ninth for his 13th save.

Mariners Offense and Misc

J.P. Crawford and Jorge Polanco each hit a solo homer off Schlittler.

It was the first career homer for Young, who connected on an 0-2 count.

An error by All-Star center fielder Julio Rodríguez cost Seattle in a three-run sixth.

Key Moments

Chisholm hit a solo shot in the third and a two-run drive in the fifth for his seventh career multihomer game, fourth with the Yankees and second this season.

Key Stat

Loáisiga has served up six homers in 22 1/3 innings this year. He allowed five homers over 69 2/3 innings from 2022-24.

Up Next

All-Star RHP Bryan Woo (8-4, 2.77 ERA) starts the series finale Thursday night for Seattle against RHP Marcus Stroman (1-1, 7.45).

In Summary

The New York Yankees defeated the Seattle Mariners 9-6 on Wednesday night at Yankee Stadium. Jazz Chisholm Jr. led the Yankees offense with two home runs and four RBIs. Rookie pitcher Cam Schlittler earned the win in his major league debut, allowing three runs over 5 1/3 innings while striking out seven. Jasson Domínguez and Aaron Judge also contributed key hits for New York. The Mariners hit four home runs from J.P. Crawford, Jorge Polanco, Randy Arozarena, and Cole Young, but it wasn't enough to overcome the Yankees' scoring outbursts. The series concludes Thursday with Bryan Woo starting for Seattle and Marcus Stroman for New York.
