Loss to Yankees Extends Houston Losing Streak
Riding the 2-hit performance of the 28-year old second baseman Scooter Gennett, the New York Yankees stopped the Houston Astros, 5-2. The winner was Zack Greinke, who threw 95 pitches over 7 innings. The right-hander was charged with 2 runs on 7 hits. Wade Davis finished the game for New York and earned his 3rd save.

Gennett came through with some timely hitting for New York. With the score 2-2 in the top of the fifth and two down, Gennett hit a first pitch fastball for a 2-run home run. His 4th home run of the season made it 4-2, New York.

"We're in a funk and we need to shake ourselves out of it," said Houston manager Jim Reid.

With the win, New York is 5-5.
