Coming a win shy of reaching the World Series would be considered a successful season for most teams.Not for the defending champion Houston Astros, who lost all four home games of the AL Championship Series to the Texas Rangers to come up short in their quest for a third straight trip to the Fall Classic.
Houston Astros manager Dusty Baker watches during the first inning of Game 6 of the baseball AL Championship Series against the Texas Rangers Sunday, Oct. 22, 2023, in Houston. Houston Astros manager Dusty Baker takes starting pitcher Cristian Javier out of the game during the first inning of Game 7 of the baseball AL Championship Series against the Texas Rangers Monday, Oct. 23, 2023, in Houston.
The Astros beat Minnesota in four games in the AL Division Series to reach the ALCS for a seventh straight season. “Obviously, we would have liked to get it done here, and there’s no simple answer as to why we didn’t play great at home,” ace Justin Verlander said. “Just stinks. Obviously, we would have liked for it to have gone different.”
He took the loss in a 2-0 defeat in Game 1 of the ALCS and didn’t factor into the decision in Houston’s thrilling come-from-behind win in Game 5. The Astros came on late to win the division despite dealing with a spate of injuries. Star second baseman Jose Altuve didn’t make his season debut until May 19 after fracturing his right thumb in the World Baseball Classic and missed three weeks in July with an oblique injury. Slugger Yordan Alvarez was out for six weeks this summer with an oblique injury.
