History will remember these Houston Astros as the ones that got unlucky.
Specifically, it will remember the fly ball Jose Altuve hit over the wall in Game 4, the extraordinary leap Mookie Betts made for it, and the way that after the ball had landed in the stands, uncaught, it was declared an out. It will remember the debate that ensued over what constitutes interference -- Joe West's confident ruling on an essentially unknowable call, the flukily blocked camera that might have otherwise saved Altuve's home run and the Astros' season.
