The Astros wrapped up a stretch of nine straight games against New York teams Thursday night with another win over the Yankees.
"They're good," Yankees manager Aaron Boone said."They're one of the best teams at keeping you from scoring as there is. So they've done a good job of, for the most part, holding us down. That's going to happen sometimes against good teams."
Houston starter Luis García allowed three hits and one run with six strikeouts in 5 1/3 innings for his third straight win. Ryan Pressly struck out two in a scoreless ninth for his 17th save. The Astros had a chance to pad the lead, but the inning ended on an odd play after a malfunction of New York starter Luis Severino's PitchCom device.
Tucker saw Severino was distracted from third base and tried to sneak home. Severino had the PitchCom earpiece in his right hand and had to quickly maneuver to get the baseball back in his throwing hand. He threw home while still holding his cap, and his throw narrowly beat Tucker and ended the inning.Severino was asked about making the throw with the device and his cap still in his hands."Sevy didn't panic and reacted the right way and made the play," Boone said.
