No one really expected the Houston Astros to fold after going down 2-0 in the ALCS, did they?
The Astros battered the Texas Rangers, 10-3, Thursday in ALCS Game 4 to tie the series at 2-2. Showing that home-field advantage is often overstated, the visiting team has won all four games in the series.
Houston jumped out to a 3-0 lead in the first inning, then added four more in the fourth. José Abreu put an exclamation point on that outburst with a three-run shot into the second deck.
Now that the Astros have tied the series, they have their ace, Justin Verlander, on the mound in Game 5. Advantage: Astros.
