WASHINGTON -- On August 7, pitching for Triple-A Round Rock, Jose Urquidy allowed 14 hits, 11 runs and three home runs in 4 u2154 innings in a game at El Paso. So it makes perfect sense that the rookie right-hander saved the Astros from the brink of elimination in Game 4 of the World Series, tossing five scoreless innings in a XXX8-1 victory that evened up the World Series at two wins apiece and sets the stage for a colossal Game 5 rematch between Gerrit Cole and Max Scherzer.
It makes perfect sense because this is baseball.
