The Houston Astros waved the white flag to the Boston Red Sox last night in a devastating 4-1 series elimination loss. It wasn’t supposed to be this way. The Houston Astros powerful offense/defense and pitching were to overpower the Red Sox to close the ALCS out with yet another trip to the World Series to defend their title.
What happened? Fans didn’t get the strongest stuff that was seen last season from Justin Verlander, Gerrit Cole as well as Dallas Keuchel and Charlie Morton.
