Cristian Javier Pitches Astros By Twins To Take 2-1 Series Lead
Posted: Wed Oct 11, 2023 5:21 am
Another stingy October outing from Cristian Javier put the Houston Astros one win away from another American League Championship Series.
In his first postseason start since a combined World Series no-hitter last year, Javier limited the Minnesota Twins to one hit over five scoreless innings, and the Astros whacked four home runs in a 9-1 victory at Target Field on Tuesday. Houston grabbed a 2-1 lead in the best-of-five division series and can clinch its seventh consecutive ALCS appearance with a win Wednesday.
