NEW YORK — The Yankees’ offense didn’t exactly experience some kind of breakthrough Tuesday night.
But the way Gerrit Cole was throwing, it didn’t matter.
The ace righthander, backed by a two-run homer from Billy McKinney and three hits from the slumping Anthony Rizzo, throttled the Mariners over 7 1/3 dominant innings in a 3-1 victory in front of 43,130 at the Stadium.
