MLB Playoffs (American League Championship Series): Astros Force Game Seven After Beating Rays Again

 At Petco Park, San Diego:  


In Friday's sixth game of the American League Championship Series, the Houston Astros became only the second team in Major League Postseason history to come back from a three-games-to-none deficit to force a game seven (the Boston Red Sox in 2004 becoming the first as they overcame the New York Yankees and won the American League pennant, en route to their first World Series title since 1918) by defeating the Tampa Bay Rays 7-4.


Franber Valdez pitched six innings of one-hit, nine-strikeout ball for the victory, while the Astros scored four runs in the fifth inning.


The series will be decided on Saturday at 5:37 PM Pacific Time (TBS).
