Notes
Houston can clinch the series tonight after taking Tuesday’s opener 9-7. Peter Lambert returns to the mound after a rough outing against the Angels last week, when he allowed nine runs in 3 2/3 innings. The Yankees counter with Elmer Rodríguez, who was recalled from Triple-A today to make his fifth major-league start.
