Astros Surrender in Extras to Red Sox, 7-5

If the Astros were just .500 in extra-inning games, they’d be in first place right now.

By my count, the Astros are 1-7 in extra-inning games in 2023, and they lost another to the Red Sox tonight, 7-5

The Astros jumped on the Red Sox quickly. Jose Altuve doubled on Boston starter Chris Sale's first pitch. An Alex Bregman single moved Altuve to third, who scored on a Kyle Tucker sac fly to deep center field.

The Astros extended the lead to 3-0 in the second inning with a Martin Maldonado two-run homer.

No.
