Yankees Take a Game

The bullpen had a little trouble in the top of the ninth, as they issue three walks and give up a single, but the Yankees get a big win as they defeat the Astros 8-1. The Yankees offense came to life in this game as they collected seven hits, two of them home runs and went 3 for 6 with runners in scoring position. Both home runs were three-run shots.

CC Sabathia pitched six scoreless innings, walking four and striking out five. Aaron Judge made a number of fine defensive plays in rightfield in addition to his three-run homer. The Astros now lead the series 2-1, and there will be a game five on Wednesday.
