Yankees Spring Training Game 6: Pitcher’s duel ends in defeat

Houston Astros 1 — New York Yankees 0

When the Houston Astros come visit the Yankees, pitching is the name of the game.

For the Yankees, Michael Pineda got the start and looked sharp, striking out three and allowing two hits in his two innings of work. Following Pineda was Luis Severino, looking to rebound from the first game of the Spring, in which he gave up a grand slam. In this appearance, Severino followed Pineda and did him one better. He lasted three innings and struck out three while allowing two hits as he prepares for the season.
