Astros look to clinch ALDS in Game 4

[Admin]

The Astros are on the verge of eliminating AL Central champ Kansas City, taking a 2-1 lead into Game 4 Monday afternoon.


Lance McCullers gets the nod for Houston. The 22-year old posted a 3.22 ERA, the best among rookies with at least 20 starts.


Hard-throwing Yordano Ventura gets the ball for the Royals. He finished the season with a 2.38 ERA in his last 11 starts.


A victory for the Astros will have them playing for the American League pennant just two season after losing a franchise worst 111 games.


If necessary, Game 5 would be Wednesday night in Kansas City.
