The Houston Astros are headed to the World Series for only the second time in franchise history after beating the Yankees, 4-0, in Game 7 of the American League Championship Series on Saturday at Minute Maid Park.
The Yankees, who reached the postseason as a wild-card team, pushed the Astros to the limit by winning Games 3, 4 and 5 in the Bronx, leaving them just one victory from their 41st pennant.
