☆ The Houston Astros will miss the ALCS for the first time since 2016
  + stars: | 2024-10-03 | by ( Rohan Nadkarni | ) www.nbcnews.com   time to read: +2 min
The Houston Astros will not appear in the American League Championship Series for the first time since 2016 after being eliminated by the Detroit Tigers on Wednesday. Not including the pandemic-shortened 2020 year, that’s the fewest number of wins the Astros have had since missing the postseason entirely in 2016. From 2017-23, not only did Houston appear in the ALCS every year, it made the World Series four times, winning twice and losing twice. The Astros’ run of championship league series appearances came under the specter of one of Major League Baseball’s most notorious scandals. The Astros were revealed to be using the sign-stealing system from as early as 2016 into the 2018 season — which encompassed their 2017 World Series win.

But its patience was rewarded on Tuesday as the Philadelphia Phillies took a 2-1 lead in the World Series, using the long ball to power their way to a 7-0 win against the Houston Astros in Game 3. “It was kind of mind-boggling because he doesn’t give up homers,” Astros coach Dusty Baker said afterwards. Elsa/Getty ImagesThen, Alec Bohm, who hit the 1,000th home run in World Series history, and Brandon Marsh added their own homers in the second to give the Phillies a 4-0 lead. Game 4 of the best-of-seven series is Wednesday night in Philadelphia.
