Houston Astros fans, I have to tell you, hearing “this will be all over soon,” part of the lyrics to the second verse of Breaking Benjamin’s single, “Breath,” within gym pump-up music playlist, it emphatically reminded me of the no-show Houston Astros’ offense in Game 1. Looking back throughout the weekend, one was left to wonder: Is there even an ALCS contest?
Indeed, after the 7-0 shellacking the Houston Astros took in the first game of the ALCS, questions still remain about Houston’s viability to reach the World Series. However, with critical wins in Games 2 and 3, the Houston Astros regained a glimmer of hope moving forward against the Bronx batting machine.
