Houston Astros improved to 66-66 and reclaimed first place in the AL West by a half-game after a 9-7 road win over the New York Yankees on August 25, fueled by Yordan Alvarez’s go-ahead eighth-inning triple and two homers from Yainer Diaz. The victory snapped Houston’s skid in a tight division race while exposing a rare New York bullpen collapse that surrendered six runs. Yankees remain at 74-57 and second in the AL East, hampered by key injuries including Aaron Judge and Giancarlo Stanton on the IL, plus rotation flux. Peter Lambert starts for Houston on August 26 against an undecided New York arm as both clubs navigate late-August playoff positioning and the season series sits tied at 2-2.
