Give some candy to a kid and grab it back when it’s about to be eaten. On Saturday night, that’s exactly what happened to the Astros, who took a tough-luck loss 3-2 against the Braves to drop Game 4 and fell behind 3-1 in the World Series. Despite some history made by José Altuve and an unexpectedly good start from Zack Greinke, the Braves ambushed the Houston bullpen with two late home runs.
The Astros were pretty close to tying the series, but instead, they finished one loss away from saying goodbye to the hope of another World Series.
