Yankees Stymie Houston, Take 4-1 Win
New York Yankees starter Steve Principato was in fine form. He led his team to victory over the Houston Astros, 4-1. Principato picked up the win for New York, going 6 innings. He gave up 1 run on 4 hits. He now sports a record of 1-0. New York, at 68-59, holds down second place in the American League East Division.

Sang-youn Kim had a big 2-run double for the Yankees in the bottom of the fourth inning. With New York leading 2-0 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he got a fastball from Mike Lusignan, who leads the AL in complete games with 1, and swatted a double to left. It was his 9th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Yankees ahead, 4-0.

New York manager Robin Hawkins called it "a good, solid win."
