Minute Maid Park was the site of a competitive game between the Houston Astros and New York Yankees.

The Houston Astros got a superb performance from pitcher Robbie Ray, but the New York Yankees still won the game, 4-2. Ray was named the player of the game despite the loss. He threw 6 innings of 3-hit ball. The Astros fall to 15-15 and continue their uneasy start to the 2018 season.

New York used the timely hitting of Manny Margot to capture the win. The center fielder stroked a 2-run double in the top of the seventh inning to put the Yankees on top, 3-2. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but he made it count.

"We did enough to win," said Margot.
