NEW YORK -- Jake Meyers hit two long three-run homers and the Houston Astros beat New York 9-7 on Sunday after struggling Yankees starter Carlos Rodón exited early with another injury.
Yordan Alvarez and Martín Maldonado also went deep to help Houston split the four-game series, the first meeting between the teams since the Astros swept the ALCS last October.
Houston, which holds an AL wild-card spot, remained 2 1/2 games behind first-place Texas in the AL West.
"Just didn't seem like that game was going to end," Astros manager Dusty Baker said.
