Postseason fans of “Anyone but the Astros” have been eating good the last couple of days, as the Rangers went into Minute Maid Park and completely stole home field advantage away from Houston. Granted, actually looking at the numbers Houston has weirdly played way better on the road than at home this year, but a 2-0 lead is a 2-0 lead. Meanwhile, over in the NL the Phillies ripped the seat out from under the D-Backs with an early strike and held on to take a 1-0 lead of their own. They’ll have the stage to themselves today with the AL travelling three hours down to Arlington.
