NEW YORK — The Yankees really looked down and out Thursday night. They trailed 6-3 from the third inning until the ninth plaing a very good Houston Astros ballclub that’s one of their biggest rivals. They scored three in the first on a homer by Giancarlo Stanton after a walk and single, then had two baserunners over the next seven innings, the first on a walk and the next on an error.
You can’t win ‘em in all.
They won again.
This was a rise-from-the-dead ninth. Two walks and then a homer by Aaron Hicks tied it, then a hit, walk and game-winning liner into the left-field corner by Aaron Judge beat the Astros 7-6.
