Houston Starts a Three Game Series in New York

The Houston Astros will look to build off of their series split with the Boston Red Sox over the weekend as they stay on the east coast for a three game mid-week series against the New York Yankees.  Brett Oberholtzer will get the start for Houston opposite the Yankees starter Chris Capuano who is making his fifth start for the Yankees since they acquired him in a Trade Deadline deal with Boston.  The Astros are 7-3 in Oberholtzer's starts since May 24, and he's 4-2 with a 2.84 ERA in that span.  "He's learned how to be a winning pitcher at the Major League level, doing whatever it is he has to do that given day to give his team the best opportunity to win the game," Houston manager Bo Porter said of the second-year Major Leaguer.  First pitch for this game is set for 6:05pm from Yankee Stadium in the Bronx with the pregame starting at 5:54pm and you can hear all the action right here on Sports Radio 1340 the FAN.
