The Houston Astros are aiming for their third consecutive World Series appearance after a win over the Texas Rangers in Game 6 of the American League Championship Series (ALCS). The Astros, who won the World Series in 2017 and 2019, are looking to make history with their third consecutive appearance in the Fall Classic.
The Astros have been dominant this postseason, winning all four of their ALCS games against the Rangers. They have been led by their star players, including shortstop Carlos Correa and outfielder George Springer. Correa has been a force at the plate, hitting .333 with two home runs and seven RBIs in the ALCS. Springer has also been a key contributor, hitting .333 with two home runs and four RBIs.
The Astros have also received strong contributions from their pitching staff. Justin Verlander has been a rock on the mound, going 2-0 with a 1.35 ERA in the ALCS. He has been backed up by Lance McCullers Jr., who has gone 1-0 with a 1.80 ERA in the series.
The Astros will look to continue their dominance in Game 7 of the ALCS. If they can win, they will become the first team since the New York Yankees (1998-2001) to make three consecutive World Series appearances. It would be a historic achievement for the Astros and their fans.
No matter what happens in Game 7, the Astros have already had an impressive postseason run. They have been led by their star players and their pitching staff has been dominant. If they can win Game 7, they will make history with their third consecutive World Series appearance.
