Everything is certainly bigger deep in the heart of Texas this baseball postseason.
FILE - Texas Rangers' Marcus Semien and Houston Astros catcher Martin Maldonado, right, talk after Semien hit a two-run home run during the fourth inning of a baseball game July 26, 2023, in Houston. Everything is certainly bigger deep in the heart of Texas this baseball postseason, with a Lone Star State matchup for a spot in the World Series. The Astros are in their seventh straight ALCS, this time against the Rangers for the first time.
Houston has dominated the AL West since the Rangers won the division in 2016, their last winning season before this year. The Astros have since been to the World Series four times, winning two of them, and the only time without a division title was the abbreviated 60-game regular season during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, when as a wild-card team they lost a seven-game ALCS to Tampa Bay.
“A lot of people were wondering what it was gonna be like if the ’Stros didn’t win the division,” third baseman Alex Bregman said at the start of their champagne celebration after the regular-season finale. “I guess we’ll never know.” “It's a heated rivalry. I understand why there's some animosity,” Rangers first baseman Nathaniel Lowe said.
