Jason Alexander allowed one hit in six innings and Jose Altuve hit his 250th career home run as Houston beat the New York Yankees 7-1.

Such was the case on Sunday at Yankee Stadium, as the lefty entered a rubber match against the Astros with a 5.81 ERA over his last six games — a stretch that included a since-healed blister — before permitting four earned runs over five frames.

The New York Yankees' offense fell flat in today's loss to the Houston Astros, 7-1 to end the series in a loss. Yankees manager Aaron Boone was ejected for the third time this season — this time he was taken out in the third inning after getting in an umpire's face about balls and strikes.

Astros win the series against the Yankees in dominate fashion with a 7-1 victory on Sunday.
