The Astros power and solid starting pitching was
the reason they were in the AL Wild Card play in game. In game 163, it
was more of the same as the Astros went into Yankee Stadium and
eliminated the Yankees 6-1. AL Cy Young favorite, Dallas Keuchel, was
dominant going 7 innings, allowing just a Greg Bird 5th inning home run.
Offensively, Houston got homers from Chris Carter and Evan Gattis off
Yankee starter Masahiro Tanaka. Jason Castro added a bomb off Yankee
closer Andrew Miller in the 9th inning to add an exclamation point to
the victory. Carlos Correa and George Springer each chipped in with 2
hits and an RBI as part of the 10 hit Houston attack.
Houston will look to continue its fairy-tale run against the AL Central champion Kansas City Royals in the next round. Thanks to Randy for getting this game in quickly.
