The Houston Astros did not get the opportunity they earned to reap what they sowed in 2020, especially in a shortened season that sent them to face the Dodgers.
The cheating Astros should’ve been reminded at every turn that they had done their part to make a mockery of the game, confronted by a packed house of spitting, surly Dodgers fans. Instead? They got a congregation of rooters outside their bus upon arrival, conveniently muted by two-paned glass.
But while the Dodgers’ and Astros’ playoff lives have continued in 2020, they’re not on a collision course just yet — and even if that collision takes place, it’ll be at Globe Life Field in Arlington for the World Series, where the LAD are currently situated, awaiting the San Diego Padres.
