Just two days after their last appearance on Prime Video, the New York Yankees will once again be featured on the streamer today, August 4, for their tilt against the Houston Astros.

Though he won’t be on the mound today, former Astros pitcher Justin Verlander rejoined the team after spending over half of the season across town as one of the New York Mets.

Today’s game at Yankee Stadium is only the second time these teams face off since the Astros won the American League championship over the Yankees and punched their ticket to the World Series (which they went on to win).

The Yankees took the first game in a four game series 4-3 yesterday and are looking to repeat that success tonight.
