How many Houston Astros are in the Hall of Fame?

The Houston Astros are a professional baseball franchise located in Houston, Texas, competing in Major League Baseball (MLB) as part of the American League (AL) West division. Established in 1962 under the name Colt .45s, the team rebranded to the Astros in 1965 when they relocated to the Astrodome, the first domed stadium ever built. The team's title pays homage to Houston's status as home to NASA’s Space Center, reinforcing its ties to space exploration.

The Astros achieved their initial winning record in 1972 and qualified for the playoffs for the first time in 1980, claiming three division championships during the 1980s. They celebrated their inaugural World Series victory against the Los Angeles Dodgers in 2017 and secured another championship title against the Philadelphia Phillies in 2022. Holding records for both most playoff appearances by an expansion team and being the sole expansion-era team with an overall winning record, they reached another milestone by becoming only the second expansion team to accumulate 5,000 wins by 2024.
