New York Beats Houston, 8-0
Gerrit Cole was superb against Houston. The right-hander, who finished 3rd in the NL in innings pitched with 203.0 in 2017, had a slider that was virtually unhittable at times. The result was a Yankees victory. The score was 8-0. In 6 innings, Cole surrendered 3 hits, while striking out 10 and walking 4. He allowed no runs. With the win, New York pushed its record to 25-22.

It could have been a different outcome for New York, had it not been for Gleyber Torres, the two-time All-Star . Torres contributed a run-scoring double in the top of the first inning to put New York up, 1-0.

"We did more than enough to get the win," said Torres.
