White, who had five doubles and eight walks in the past week entering tonight, collected another two-bagger and scored a run, but that was all Houston could muster in a 4-1 loss—the Astros sixth straight—to the New York Yankees. Gary Sanchez and Gleyber Torres both hit two-run homers for the Yankees to send the Astros to their longest losing streak in nearly four years.The Astros lost to the Yankees, 4-1. They are 48-29.

Paxton ended the threat with another groundball and the Astros stranded two runners in consecutive innings.Peacock sandwiched strikeouts around a Cameron Maybin single before Sanchez deposited his 23rd home run of the season 481 feet deep into the leftfield bleachers to give New York a 2-0 lead in the third.
