Houston is one win away from a World Series title thanks to their ace's performance in...
The latest great challenge of Verlander’s career started at 7:41 p.m. local time as a stadium glowed, then booed with pure venom.
Could Verlander finally break through on Thursday night and give the Astros a 3-2 World Series advantage before flying back to Houston? Jose Altuve immediately backed the Astros’ regular-season ace at the plate, lining Noah Syndergaard’s second offering off the right-center field wall and sprinting to third base after an error. Jeremy Peña then backed Verlander with an RBI single and it was quickly 1-0 in favor of a 39-year-old with 244 career regular-season wins and an overall 15-11 record with a 3.69 ERA and 1.10 WHIP in 34 postseason games .Verlander went ahead 0-1 on Schwarber on Thursday evening.
