Wells drove in the Yankees’ first run in the ballgame as he worked a bases-loaded walk off of Angel Zerpa with two outs in the sixth inning. He then raced around to score on a three-run double by Jasson Domínguez. The overall slash line looks putrid at .196/.276/.451 to start the season, but the 25-year-old backstop has at least contributed three long balls and eight RBI.

Foscue laced a one-out single into left field in the eighth inning to break up Spencer Arrighetti’s no-hitter. His hit would be the only one of the night for the Rangers, who struggled to get anything going despite only striking out six times as a team. It was just the third hit of the season for Foscue, who was recalled from Triple-A Round Rock earlier this month.

Paredes broke a scoreless tie in the third inning when he blasted a solo shot off Jack Leiter to give the Astros a 1-0 lead. It was all the Astros would end up needing, as starter Spencer Arrighetti would pitch 7 1/3 innings of no-hit baseball before having the no-no broken up by Justin Foscue in the eighth inning. It was just the fourth homer of the season for Paredes, who has now hit safely in four of his last six games and is slashing .265/.368/.388 on the month.

Talk about a tough break. On the night when Leiter had one of his best outings of the season, the righty was outshone by Astros starter Spencer Arrighetti, who took a no-hitter into the eighth inning. Leiter did everything he could to position the Rangers for a win in this one, but the solo homer he allowed to Isaac Paredes in the third inning proved to be too much to overcome in this one. Leiter has allowed just one earned run in his last two starts while pitching 11 2/3 innings and striking out 12. He’ll look to pick up his second win of the season on Wednesday at the Rockies.

Arrighetti took a no-hitter into the eighth inning but had it broken up by Justin Foscue with one out. Despite walking four batters, Arrighetti never walked more than one batter in any inning and successfully pitched his way out of danger while firing five strikeouts. With this latest outing, Arrighetti has now lowered his ERA to 1.50 on the season while picking up his fifth win. His next start is scheduled for Wednesday on the road against the Twins.
