Yankees starter Luis Severino retired the first 11 batters he faced before allowing a single to Jose Altuve in the series finale against the Astros on Wednesday night, and the right-hander’s dominance did not end there.
Severino went seven sparkling innings, allowing two runs on four hits while tying a season high with 11 strikeouts, to lead the Yankees to a 5-3 victory and a series win. The Yanks finished the regular-season series 5-2 against the Astros, who defeated them in seven games in last year’s American League Championship Series.
