Saturday Bird Droppings: Wishing the Orioles were part of fun LCS action

Good morning, Birdland!

Well, that was a fun evening of baseball! Fireworks throughout and a pair of comeback wins have entirely flipped the two LCS match-ups on their head.

The Astros stormed back from a two-run deficit, seemingly fueled by an eighth-inning, benches-clearing dustup between Adolis García and Martín Maldonado. José Altuve smacked a three-run bomb off Rangers closer José Leclerc in the top of the ninth, and then Ryan Pressley worked himself out of a jam in the bottom of the frame to wrap things up. Houston won all three games on the road in Arlington and now have a 3-2 lead in ALCS.
