The New York Yankees completed a dramatic opening weekend sweep of the Houston Astros Sunday with help from all of their newcomers.The fantastic finish began with a ninth-inning rally against Astros closer Josh Hader, Houston's marquee offseason acquisition. Hader tried to keep the game tied at three, but the Yankees' newest superstar, Juan Soto, had other plans. After working the count full against his former San Diego Padres teammate, Soto won the epic at-bat by flicking a single to left field, putting New York ahead 4-3. He's the Juan who knocks. pic.twitter.com/OqXq0YTmXK New York Yankees (@Yankees) March 31, 2024 Every pitch from the Juan Soto 9th inning AB in all its glory. pic.twitter.com/8s9MyS0ymx MLB (@MLB) March 31, 2024 The drama wasn't done there. Houston quickly put the tying and winning runs on base in the bottom half against Yankees closer Clay Holmes. Jose Altuve appeared to have won the game, but third baseman Jon Berti - playing in his first game as a Yankee after being acquired right before Opening Day - came to his new team's rescue by spearing his ground ball at the line and securing a force out.

After that, a sliding Alex Verdugo corralled Kyle Tucker's sinking liner, clinching the Yankees' four-game sweep in dramatic fashion.

Two of New York's four wins in Houston were by a one-run margin.The Astros, meanwhile, were swept in a season-opening four-game series for the first time since 1978, according to Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle.Copyright © 2024 Score Media Ventures Inc.
