On the heels of a three-game losing streak in Tampa, the Astros needed a win. Was Monday’s game in Arlington a ‘must-win’? Not really. However, a win is always nice, no matter when it occurs.
Thankfully for the club and its fans, the Astros came away victorious 2-1 over the Rangers. Here are three things that I observed and noticed during the game.
Carlos Correa‘s exit velocity
As we all know by now, Correa didn’t exactly have the 2018 season that I’m sure he wanted to have. The persistent back injury was clearly limiting the Astros’ shortstop.
