It wasn’t a best case scenario for the Astros last night, but every one of us will take it. After all, we all remember some 2-1 victories last October against this team, and they counted too.
We would have been surprised and disappointed after what we’ve seen so far this year if Charlie Morton wasn’t dominant. Yes, even against the team with the league’s highest OPS, the league’s most runs, the league’s most home runs. What we hoped for was a runfest against the struggling Yankees starter Sonny Gray, and maybe a runaway win before the Stros met the meat of the Yankees rotation
Instead it was a pitcher’s duel.
