The Astros started this series fighting for their playoff lives. After this game I am ready to call them dead. This is my personal "tombstone" moment. It worked so well back in the day, and I am willing to try anything. This team really, really, really needed to win this series (if not sweep it). So instead of coming out and taking care of business, the Rangers took care of them easily. Very little timely hitting, bad pitching, injuries, mental lapses...it all added up to another Astros loss and dropped them to 4.5 games back of first place.
Rangers 6, Astros 2: Time To Dust Off The Tombstone?
