SEATTLE -- Yankees pitcher Andy Pettitte has had career full of highlights in the big leagues. Alvaro Arbeloa Real Madrid Jersey . And Saturday he added a couple more. Pettitte allowed three hits over 7 1-3 innings to earn his 250th career victory, leading the Yankees to a 3-1 win over the Seattle Mariners. The 47th pitcher in major league history to reach that milestone, he will turn 41 on June 15. But what happened just as the game ended meant even more to him. His first-born son, Josh Pettitte, a right-hand pitcher for Deer Park (Texas) High School, was drafted by the Yankees in the 37th round in the Major League Baseball draft. "Ill remember this one, thats for sure," said Pettitte, who also picked up his 213th victory as Yankee, putting him third on the franchises career list behind Whitey Ford (236) and Red Ruffing (231). Josh, who was with his father in the dugout during the game, got a call from Yankees director of amateur scouting Damon Opperheimer in the Yankee clubhouse as the game was ending. "I was shaving and I walked out and Damons on the phone," Pettitte said. "I gave him a big hug and kiss and told him I was proud of him. Josh, who had a pair of no-hitters this season, has a scholarship offer to play for Baylor. Thats where his dad wants him to go. "Its an honour to have the Yankees take him and were excited about that," Pettitte said. "Its a good situation to have the opportunity for a lot of teams to look at him. (But) the money wasnt going to be there to where I felt he needed to pass up on Baylor. Dads hoping Baylor is what hes going to do." Asked what he gets the most satisfaction from, his 250th win or Josh being drafted, Pettitte said, "it all ties together now. You cant separate them. It happened here with the game ending. Its pretty cool." Whats also tied in is his association with Marino Rivera. The Yankees closer worked the ninth and saved a Pettitte victory for the 71st time, the most of any pitching combination since the save rule was established. "I have the same joy he has, knowing that Ive been there for every one of them," said Rivera, who earned his 630th save to add to his major league record. "Ive been able to contribute a little bit to his success. Im as happy as he is. "He pitched a tremendous game today. To be there for his 250th, thats special. " Rivera also has great numbers. He has 22 saves in 23 opportunities this season -- expected to be his last -- and is 36 of 38 for his career against the Mariners. "I feel blessed to play the game as long as I have," Pettitte said, "and to have Mo close it out is special because hes such a good friend." Pettitte (5-3) had six strikeouts and no walks in his 85-pitch effort. He has 1,940 strikeouts as a Yankee, 16 behind franchise leader Ford. Pettitte is 12-13 in 26 career starts against the Mariners, the only American League team he has a losing record against. "We tried to make adjustments and he adjusted right back," Mariners manager Eric Wedge said of Pettitte. "Hes amazing. There are a couple of guys over there that have had amazing careers and are still doing it at the highest level." Jayson Nix had a pair of RBI singles and Brett Gardner had three hits, including two doubles. The Yankees scored a two-out run off Joe Saunders (4-6) in the first inning. After Mark Teixeira doubled down the left-field line, Robinson Cano drove him home with a single to right for his 40th RBI. Jason Bay opened with a single to left in the Mariners fourth, the first baserunner Pettitte allowed. Kyle Seager followed with a first-pitch single to right, extending his hitting streak to 12 games. Kendrys Morales then bounced a potential double-play grounder to shortstop Nix. He bobbled it and was late to tag second, but still threw to first for one out. Michael Morse then hit a sac-fly to centre, scoring Bay. The Mariners failure to turn a double play in the fifth allowed the Yankees to jump ahead, 2-1. Ichiro Suzuki walked and advanced to second on Chris Stewarts one-out single to centre. Gardner then hit a one-hopper to third baseman Seager. He threw quickly to second for the force but second baseman Nick Franklin bobbled the relay and Gardner reached. Nix then drove Suzuki home with a single to right. Nix also drove home the final run in the seventh on a single to centre, scoring Gardner, who had doubled. Kevin Youkilis entered the game tied with Bostons David Ortiz for reaching base safely in all 20 games they have started at Safeco Field. His sixth-inning walk gave him 21 straight. "Two hundred-fifty wins and a lot of post-season wins, too," Yankee manager Joe Girardi said of Pettitte. "Hes been a great Yankee, one of the all-time greats. Its been a pleasure to play with him and a pleasure to manage him." NOTES: Yankees RHP Michael Pineda, who had labrum surgery 14 months ago, began his rehab assignment with Single-A Tampa Saturday. .

An old adage in college football has been never play for a field goal.It might be time for the pros to take heed.Particularly in overtime.For the first time in 19 years, the NFL has had two ties in a season. On consecutive weekends, no less, and punctuated by poor placekicking. It nearly was three draws, including a pair on Sunday, which would have been a league first. But Oakland knocked off Tampa Bay with 1:45 remaining in overtime by avoiding a field goal try and throwing for the winning points.Ties are strange creatures in the NFL, and coaches tend to be unsure how to avoid them. Should they be aggressive or conservative in the extra session? How do you use the clock? Most importantly, when do you strategize for a winning kick?Maybe the answer to that one is simply never.Bruce Arians and Pete Carroll were burned by that approach in the 6-6 deadlock between Arizona and Seattle last weekend. On Sunday, in a 27-27 tie in London between Washington and Cincinnati that was one of the most watchable games of a mostly pedestrian 2016 season so far, the Redskins got scorched by a field goal failure in OT. The Bengals had their kicking woes in regulation.I need to make those kicks, bottom line, said Dustin Hopkins , who hooked a 34-yarder in OT seconds after his successful kick was negated because Cincinnati called a timeout. I try my very best every time I go out, and thats kind of the only standard I can hold myself to. Obviously, I expect more from myself. I cant expect anything more from these guys. They played their heart out, so Im disappointed for them.Just as disappointing as the botched kicks by Hopkins or Arizonas Chandler Catanzaro or Seattles Steven Hauschka is the uncertainty on the part of Arians, Carroll, Washingtons Jay Gruden and Cincinnatis Marvin Lewis for handling overtime. Gruden even facetiously suggested he and hhis players didnt know games could end in ties. James Rodriguez Jersey. I dont know how to react, Gruden said. I didnt think it was possible to tie. I know there was a tie last week in Arizona, but I was like, `How the heck did they tie?Now we know.Draws -- yes, a nod to the 27-27 affair in England -- also confuse
