HOUSTON (AP) _ Jesus Guzman and L.J. Hoes homered off CC Sabathia to help the
Houston Astros roll to a 6-2 win Tuesday night in the first game of Derek
Jeter’s farewell tour with the New York Yankees.
Jeter’s final big league season began by being plunked on the left arm by Scott
Feldman and ended 1 for 3 with a single. The 13-time All-Star who helped New
York to five World Series titles announced in February his 20th season would be
his last.
The Astros added Dexter Fowler and Feldman to improve a team coming off three
straight 100-loss seasons. On the first day, it worked.
Fowler had two doubles as Houston jumped on Sabathia for six runs in the first
two innings. Feldman allowed two hits in 6 2-3 innings.
