Heartbreaking Loss in the Bronx 
Even though our beloved Houston Astros battled hard at Yankee Stadium, the New York Yankees edged us out, claiming a narrow 5-4 victory. We showed potential with some clutch plays, but unfortunately, it wasn't quite enough to overcome the Yankees tonight.Early Spark 
Our game started on a high note as Jeremy Peña smashed a solo homer to left field in the top of the 1st inning, giving us an early 1-0 lead. However, the Yankees responded with two runs in the bottom of that inning, swinging the momentum in their favor. Despite a strong start, we found ourselves trailing at the end of the first inning.Fighting Back 
Never ones to back down, the Astros tied the game in the 4th inning thanks to a key play by Carlos Correa, who singled and brought in Jesus Sánchez to even things up at 2-2. The Yankees, however, claimed a 4-2 lead by the end of the 5th inning. The boys continued to push back. In the 8th inning, a couple of errors by the Yankees allowed Cam Smith and Jose Altuve to score crucial runs, leveling the game at 4-4. But in the bottom of the 8th, the Yankees managed to reclaim the lead with a home run by Trent Grisham.Final Push 
Despite a valiant effort, the Astros couldn't find a way to rally in the 9th. Ramon Urias, Cam Smith, and Jeremy Peña all recorded outs, closing out a nail-biting finish in New York. Though we leave with a heart-wrenching loss, the fight and determination shown by the Astros give us hope for the upcoming games. Until next time, we hold our heads high and continue to support our team. Go Astros!
