Yankees Fall to Astros in Thriller | New York Yankees News

Yankees fall hard to Astros 9-7 in a back-and-forth thriller, as Houston out-hit New York 14-10 and the bullpen crumbled, surrendering six runs. The loss keeps NY 3.5 games behind the Rays in the AL East, while the Red Sox close the gap to just 1.5 games. Cody Bellinger sparked the offense with a three-run homer, and Luis Garcia Jr. nearly hit for the cycle, going 4-for-4 with two RBIs. Will Warren struggled in his start, and the bullpen couldn’t hold the lead—Fernando Cruz gave up a tying homer, Brent Headrick allowed a go-ahead triple. Yainer Diaz powered the Astros with three RBIs, including a solo shot. The teams clash again tonight, with Houston’s Pete Lambert facing Yankees’ Elmer Rodriguez.
