The Astros dropped two of three against the New York Yankees over the weekend. Houston pitching struggled and the bats were slow to warm up until Sunday afternoon. Yordan Alvarez and Aaron Judge lead major league baseball in home runs and continued with their hot starts. The Astros head out to Baltimore and Boston and return home the following week to take on the rival Los Angeles Dodgers.
