Oakland Athletics vs Houston Astros: Storylines
You’ve got to give the Oakland Athletics a lot of credit. They’re the true definition of a team. No big names, no ego, just a unit working together for a common goal and a well-coached team.
The A’s dropped their first game to the Chicago White Sox but were able to bounce back with a couple of victories thanks to their timely hitting and solid rotation. Now, they’ll face an even tougher task.
The Houston Astros are the team everyone loves to hate. But, as Carlos Correa said, there’s not much people can say now after they made it to this point, even if they were below .500 in the regular season.
This team has a lot of experience In these kinds of stages and will only get better as the days go by, and their starting rotation has been quite solid even despite the tough loss of Justin Verlander for most of the season.
