The first two games of the ALCS ended in the Astros favor. The next two games, um, simply did not. Let’s just say we may remembering Game 4 of the ALCS in a similar fashion as Game 4 of the ALDS.
At this point in the series, the Astros collective lack of offensive firepower and a shaky bullpen have led to their current predicament. To be fair, though, a tied series at two games apiece with Dallas Keuchel and Justin Verlander scheduled to pitch isn’t a bad situation. Sure, any team would much rather have a 3-to-1 series lead.
