Castro (4H) and SS Didi Gregorius (3H) are the first Yankees starting middle infield duo to record at least 3H apiece in the same game since 8/18/13 at Boston (Cano/ Nunez, 3H each). Astros SS Carlos Correa (4-for-5) became the second player in Yankee Stadium history to hit a home run off the glassfacing of the Mohegan Sun Sports Bar, joining Seattle s Russell Branyan who accomplished the feat on 7/2/09. 3x3: According to the Elias Sports Bureau, Wednesday marked the second time since 1960 that the Yankees scored at least 3R in each of the first three innings of a game (also 9/1/08 at Detroit) the last time the club accomplished the feat at home was on 7/26/31 (G2) vs. Chicago-AL, when the Ruth- and Gehrig-led offense scored 3R in the first, 6R in the second, 9R in the third and 4R in the fourth of a 22-5 win.

SEVENTH HEAVEN: 2B Starlin Castro has 7RBI in the first two games of the season (2RBI on Tues. and 5RBI on Wed.), marking the most by a Yankee in his first two games with the team since RBI became an official stat in 1920 (previous record: Todd Greene, 6RBI in 2001) is the fourth Yankees hitter with as many as 7RBI in the team s first two games of a season, joining Tino Martinez (1997), Yogi Berra (1956) and Babe Ruth (1932), who all had seven.

According to the Elias Sports Bureau, became the first Yankees player to drive in two or more runs in his first plate appearance for the team on Opening Day, since Billy Martin in Castro is tied for the AL lead in RBI and ranks second in BA (.625) and SLG (1.250) and tied for second in OBP (.625).

According to research performed by YES Network, Castro and Gregorius, both 26 years old, form the Yankees youngest regular starting middle infield pairing since 2B Willie Randolph and SS Bucky Dent began a three-year run in 1977, when Randolph was 22 and Dent was 25.
