The Houston Astros are red-hot right now and although they fell to the Chicago White Sox 9-4 last night, they’ve still won 15 of their last 18 games and have a 7.5-game lead over the Texas Rangers in the AL West for a 33-17 record at of the time of this writing.
The way these guys are winning games reminds me so much of the championship seasons with the Houston Rockets, when one guy would go down, there would be another to step up and be able to help their team be successful. Robert Horry, Sam Cassell, Carl Herrera, Chucky Brown, need I say more?
