Three wins in four games hardly qualifies as a hot streak but for the New York Yankees, it might represent some progress at the plate.
New York attempts to keep getting more positive results with its offense Sunday afternoon when it hosts the Houston Astros in the finale of a four-game series.
In Saturday's 3-1 win, the Yankees scored twice and got seven of their nine hits off Justin Verlander, who struck out only four. Rookie Anthony Volpe hit a sacrifice fly in the second inning and Jake Bauers hit a go-ahead homer in the fifth before Gleyber Torres added a homer in the eighth. Houston is also hoping to produce significantly better offense than Saturday. The Astros had two hits against five pitchers and struck out 16 times -- one shy of their season high and their second-highest total against the Yankees.
Carlos Rodon , who is off to a rocky start in the first year of his six-year contract with the Yankees, pitches after allowing at least four runs for the third time this season. Rodon followed up 5 2/3 innings of one-run ball against the Mets on July 26 by allowing four runs on four hits in four innings of a 5-2 loss to the visiting Tampa Bay Rays on Tuesday.
