Andy Pettitte injury: Yankees pitcher leaves game in 5th

Pettitte’s condition is undisclosed at this time, but something didn’t sit right with the veteran southpaw on his final pitch of the evening. A fifth-inning grimace was not what Yankee fans wanted to see.

He didn’t have his best stuff against the Mariners, allowing four hits, three walks and two earned runs in 4⅔ innings of work. Pettitte did manage to record five strikeouts before making his exit, though.

New York trailed Seattle 2-1 when Pettitte came off the mound.
