What can you say? Roadstros showed up, as usual (for 2023), Cristian Javier showed up. Houston took a 2-1 lead and needs to win one of the next two to advance to play Six Flags for the AL Pennant.
*FanGraphs: Houston 77.8 - 22.2 Minnesota
*Houston is 7-3 in potential series-clinching games since 2020. The Astros push the Twins to the brink of elimination.
*Cristian Javier was unreal, again: 5IP, 1H/0ER, 9K:5BB. The walks were stupid, don't worry about them. Maybe we'll get to them in a bit.
Javier, postseason appearances, career: 15GP, 37.
