Things are probably pretty bleak when Tyler White has been your best hitter for more than a few games. White, who had five doubles and eight walks in the past week entering tonight, collected another two-bagger and scored a run, but that was all Houston could muster in a 4-1 loss—the Astros sixth straight—to the New York Yankees.
Gary Sanchez and Gleyber Torres both hit two-run homers for the Yankees to send the Astros to their longest losing streak in nearly four years.
The Astros lost to the Yankees, 4-1. They are 48-29.
This is Houston's first six-game losing streak since July 7-12, 2015.
