The Houston Astros needed a big win on the road like Chris Carter needed to learn how to hit a breaking ball. One of those was possible on Tuesday night, the Astros won a big game on the road to finally reach 70 wins on the season. Take a second a let that soak in, 70 wins already after winning only 70 games last year. We still have time in August and September to add to the wins totals.
This season has been a magical run for the Houston Astros, but the excitement has been tempered by the team’s inability to score runs on the road.
