Spencer Arrighetti allowed one run over seven innings, and Christian Walker homered and drove home a season-high four runs, and the Houston Astros beat New York 7-4 on Sunday to snap the Yankees' eight-game winning streak. Arrighetti (3-0) struck out eight while allowing three hits and one walk. He is the first Astros starter to pitch seven innings since Lance McCullers Jr. on March 30.
