HOUSTON — When Tyler Austin made a diving stop on Brian McCann’s grounder to end the seventh inning Wednesday night, stranding two runners, he kept Luis Severino’s shutout bid intact.

The first baseman got the ball to Severino at first to end the inning, but came up with a left hip problem that forced him out of the game. The injury isn’t considered serious, however.

“Jammed my hip a little bit. I had a little spasm or whatever. But I went in and got stretched out and I feel great right now,’’ Austin said after the Yankees’ 4-0 win over the Astros.

Asked if he had any concerns about being available to play Thursday, Austin said, “No, not at all.’’

Until he was replaced by Neil Walker in the eighth inning, Austin had a great view of Severino’s complete-game shutout.

“It’s incredible. He’s in my opinion one of the best pitchers in the game and he showed that tonight,’’ said Austin, who went 0-for-3.
