The Houston Astros have struggled so much on the road this season, so it was a good feeling when the Astros got the road win in New York in the wild-card game. While Dallas Keuchel was still dominant against the Yankees, he has not pitched that as well on the road this season. With that performance against the Yankees, the Astros have exorcised their road demons for now. So how did their performance carry over to start the American League Division Series?
Everyone outside of Houston gave the Astros not much of a chance to beat the Kansas City Royals.
