For Astros fans, it’s become a ritual. Almost a boring ritual.
- Seven of the last eight years in the playoffs.
- Division Champions in every real season since 2017.
- ALDS winners every year since 2017, six straight seasons, an AL record.
- AL Champions four out of the last six years.
- Beat the Yankees in the playoffs four out of the last eight years without a loss, including an ALCS sweep this year. The Astros humiliate the Yankees like the Yankees used to humiliate the rest of baseball throughout baseball history.
