  • Yankees fall short of Astros sweep as Houston wins finale, 4-3

    The Yankees were unable to avail themselves of a tantalizing opportunity to record a season series sweep of the Astros on Thursday, losing 4-3 to their biggest nemesis of the past decade.

  • Yankees vs. Tigers: How to watch, TV channel, streaming, lineups

    The Yankees offense is still far from firing on all cylinders, managing just six runs in four games against the Orioles and taking until the ninth inning to get on the board in the series opener against the Tigers.

Let’s look back at what happened on Tuesday in today’s edition of the Rivalry Roundup. Former Ray Willy Adames and Brice Turang combined to drive in seven...
