After yet another disheartening loss by the Texans, Houston sports fans could still watch the Astros try to...finish the season at .500. Exciting stuff, right? Despite clinching a playoff berth on Friday, the Astros played mostly uninspired baseball this weekend in Arlington, a trend that continued Sunday with nothing at stake except their pride. An 8-4 loss to the Rangers means that Houston is the first team in baseball history to reach the playoffs with a losing record, as they finished the regular season 29-31. Try telling anyone on March 11 that the Astros would make the postseason after winning 29 games.
Playoffs? Playoffs? Astros 6 seed despite losing record
