Astros Fight Back but Fall Short After Wasted Opportunities. Down 0-2 in ALCS to Rangers

It was bound to happen. After fighting back from so many desperate situations in the past, today, the Astros fell short.

Once in a while, you’re not going to pull through.

It was bound to happen.

The Astros never gave up. Still, they choked.

The choke began with the starting pitching. It’s been a recurring nightmare all year. Will the starter on any given day pitch a no-hitter or get bombed? The nightmare part was getting bombed in a playoff game.

Framber Valdez threw a no-hitter earlier this year. He’s been bombed more often than not ever since.
