Houston Astros and their home games at Minute Maid Park haven't quite turned out well, as they have now lost four in a row against the Texas Rangers, including on Sunday. ALCS Game 6 saw the Rangers overcome the Astros 9-2 to force Game 7 to decide AL's World Series contender.

The Rangers batting unit again came up hot and scored nine runs off 10 hits, thanks to a late-inning grand slam from Adolis Garcia. Texas scored as many as five runs in the ninth inning in an otherwise well-contested game. Moreover, the Rangers ace Nathan Eovaldi once again overpowered the 'Orange Army' and only gave up two earned runs in 6.1 innings pitched.
