NEW YORK (AP) - Raul Ibanez homered and drove in three runs as Freddy Garcia and the New York Yankees wrapped up a long and losing homestand with a win, beating the Seattle Mariners 6-2 Sunday.

Garcia got his 150th career victory while Ichiro Suzuki continued to be a one-hit wonder for the AL East leaders.

The Yankees won for only the sixth time in 16 games. They went 4-5 against Boston, Baltimore and Seattle on their longest stay at Yankee Stadium so far this season.

Garcia (5-5) hung around for five innings and preserved a one-run lead with his final pitch, retiring Kyle Seager with two runners on base.
