Short's back-to-back sixes hand Warriors victory
Mackin finished with figures of 5-33. Andrew Tye, recalled to WA's XI after playing for Australia during the Twenty20 series in India, picked up two wickets.
The match was played on a more-placid pitch than the dangerous deck that led to Sunday's fixture at the same venue being abandoned mid-chase.
