Perhaps the most frustrating part of the New York Yankees finding themselves on the wrong end of a three-game sweep at the hands of the Houston Astros was the way they lost. Yes, the Yankees have their fair share of injuries and they were facing the Astros’ top starting pitchers but the fact that they couldn’t execute defensively or shut it down with what’s supposed to be a shutdown bullpen, was baffling. Certainly, you tip your cap to Houston for cashing in and taking advantage of opportunities but the Yankees should’ve come away with more than a donut in H-Town.
Yankees strike first in Houston!
