Left-handed pitcher Robert Gasser is expected to make his MLB debut when Milwaukee takes on the St. Louis Cardinals on Friday.
Yordan Alvarez and Jon Singleton each hit long homers in the first inning for the Houston Astros, who beat the New York Yankees 4-3 on Thursday night to avoid being swept in the season series. Alvarez, who was 3 for 32 with no homers in his previous nine games entering Thursday, hit a two-out solo shot off Marcus Stroman (2-2) into the second deck in right field measured at 116.8 mph. “When he hit it, he looked in the dugout (as if he was) saying ‘Hey, I’m coming,’” Astros manager Joe Espada said.
