Thursday afternoon's Game 1 of the ALDS between the Boston Red Sox and the Houston Astros at Minute Maid Park wasn't exactly a nail-biter, with the Astros cruising to an 8-2 victory.
The biggest storyline was Astros second baseman Jose Altuve slugging three home runs. The 5-foot-6 MVP candidate became only the 10th major leaguer to do so in a postseason game.
MLB players, former big leaguers -- and even Orbit, the Astros' mascot -- took to Twitter to give Altuve a shoutout.
Astros light up Sale.Price like playoff performance.
