The Astros taught Young a hard lesson in Game 3 of the series on the 26th Yankees, starting pitchers Cristian Javier, Hector Neris, and Ryan Pressly actually teamed up to throw a no-hitter, making the Yankees proud of their entire offensive line. Yankees starting pitcher Gerrit Cole performed well against his old team, but the performance of his teammates made him destined to lose. In the end, the Astros shut out the Yankees 3-0.

— MLB (@MLB) June 25, 2022 The rate was 3.07. I didn't expect that this game would be his career masterpiece. In addition to 7 "no-no (no hits)" and 1 walk, he also shot an astonishing 13K. This is also the pitcher who has thrown the most K's in a single game since Cole left the Astros.
Yankees third baseman Josh Donaldson said: "Obviously it's shocking, we have a good line. It doesn't feel good to be thrown a no-hitter, but we have confidence in our team, that's the point. It won't change." The last time the Yankees were humiliated by a no-hitter was in 2003, the lineup was different from now, the stadium was at the old Yankee Stadium, and the opponent at that time was also the Astros.
Javier, who is from the Dominican Republic, said through a translator: "I'm happy, I'm proud of this moment that God has given me." Pressley, another pitcher, said: "This is the best feeling in the world." Yankees The current winning rate exceeds 70%. According to some sports media statistics, it may be the team with the highest winning rate in the history of the major leagues (more than 50 games in the regular season) and was awarded a no-hitter.
Astros rookies J.J. Matijevic and Jose Altuve each fired one shot. Yankee Cole allowed one run in 7 innings and lost the game. Javier used 115 pitches to win his fifth victory and his ERA dropped to 2.73.
