Rich has 3 hits in New York Win
Due in large part to first baseman Nick Rich, the New York Yankees sunk the Houston Astros, 11-4. Rich was 3 for 4 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk. He scored 2 times and drove in 3. The winning pitcher was Dan Simon. He tossed 104 pitches over 7 innings, allowing 4 runs on 8 hits. The Yankees now have a record of 26-15 with the win over Houston.

New York used the stroke of Steve Marston to get the win. The second baseman hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the first inning to put the Yankees ahead, 3-0. It was his lone hit in 5 at-bats, but it did its damage.

"I put some good swings on the ball," said Rich.
