A team from Texas is going to represent the American League in the World Series, as the ALCS gets underway Sunday night at Minute Maid Park in the Rangers vs Astros game 1 matchup. Houston definitely has a postseason experience advantage as they have now made the Championship series seven straight years, but Texas is […]
Minnesota is a somewhat surprising favorite on Wednesday night, facing elimination in the Astros vs Twins game 4 ALDS matchup. Minnesota was able to steal home field advantage for a short minute with a 6-2 victory at Minute Maid Park in game two, but Houston blasted four HRs on Tuesday at Target Field to take […]
The Cubs (19-21) limp into Houston after being outscored 27-4 by the Twins the last two games. The Astros (21-19) took two of three from the White Sox in the Windy City this weekend, and now look to at least repeat that – if not aim for the sweep – as they play the other […]
The struggling White Sox (13-27) may be close to calling 2023 a lost season as they have now lost three games in a row following the 5-1 defeat to Houston in Friday’s series opener and what is the start of 9 straight games at home for Chicago. The Astros (20-18) pulled to 3-3 on their […]

Regardless of what happens on Thursday night at Citizens Bank Park, it’s mission accomplished for the Houston Astros who have taken back home field advantage with their 5-0 win in Game 4 that evened up the 2022 World Series at 2-2. Philadelphia still has a great opportunity in Game 5 if they can pick up […]
The Phillies were able to defend their home field advantage in a big way on Tuesday night with a 7-0 victory over the Astros to take a 2-1 World Series lead. Philadelphia is now two wins away from celebrating in front of their home crowd and they’ll look to close that gap in the Astros […]
It’s Justin Verlander vs. Aaron Nola to kick off the Phillies vs Astros Game 1 of the 2022 World Series.
