New York Yankees fall to the Houston Astros, 8-6; swept in series (Highlights)

Well, the New York Yankees did not have a good series against the Astros. There are no two ways about it.

Poor defense and shaky bullpen performances let the first two winnable games slip through their fingers. The Astros controlled the final game of the series from the first inning to the last out.

The Bad

James Paxton was knocked around for the second game in a row. The Big Maple pitched more like The Small Pine, surrendering five earned runs on eight hits in just four innings of work.
