It was a textbook victory for the Houston Astros, who 'can't wait' to play in front of the Phillies' passionate fans.
Jose Altuve, who entered the game hitting .108 this postseason, hitless in 25 at-bats during one stretch, broke out deep in the heart of Texas.
Altuve was down about his struggles, but refused to let his confidence wane, poring over video, taking extra batting practice, with all his teammates predicting it would be only a matter of time. The rest of the game was spent with hitting coach Troy Snitker going up and down the bench, imploring his players to stay even-keeled.
The pitching matchups are back in their favor the next two games, and the team is actually looking forward to playing in Philadelphia. “It’s going to be pretty wild, maybe real wild,’’ Smith said. “We’ll be ready. Just another day at the park.’’
