Yankees.com: Offense unable to get on track vs. Astros
Over the last three seasons, no one has hit more home runs to right field at Yankee Stadium than Brian McCann. The famed short porch has been kind to the left-handed-hitting slugger, who visited one of his favorite New York attractions with a three-run shot in the Astros’ 5-1 victory over the Yankees on Friday.
McCann’s sixth home run of the season produced an early cushion for right-hander Lance McCullers Jr., who helped lead the Astros (25-11) to their best 36-game start in franchise history by limiting the Yankees to four hits over six scoreless innings, striking out seven.
