The stage is set for the 2022 Major League Baseball World Series as the Houston Astros will be taking on the Philidelphia Phillies in a best-of-seven series beginning Friday, Oct. 28.
Making its fifth World Series appearance since 2017, after a controversial win, are the Astros. The Astros were able to sweep the New York Yankees in a 4-0 win in the American League Championship Series (ALCS). Game four was a close one as the Yankees were able to take the lead in the sixth inning, but with an RBI single (runs batted in) by designated hitter Yordan Álvarez and a go ahead single by infielder Alex Bregman the Astros were able to claim the game.
