Patrick Mahomes II
Despite quite some negative attention for the sign-stealing scandal, the Houston Astros have been performing quite well over the past few years. On Wednesday, the Houston Astros played their first American League Division Game against the Seattle Mariners and took home victory with an 8-7 thriller. All thanks to the three-run walk-off home run in the last innings by Yordan Álvarez.
Really taken aback by this incredible homer was Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes II. Mahomes, who joined the Kansas City Chiefs in the year 2020 for a whopping $450 million 10-year contract, was carefully watching the match. After the match, he took to Twitter and applauded the Astros for their stunning victory.
“Wow!!! That was a ??!!! #Astros” Patrick Mahomes II’s tweet read, post victory of the Houston Astros in their first game of the American League Division Series.
Houston Astros dominating the ALWD in the past 6 years
Not only did Yordan Álvarez lead the Houston Astros to a stunning victory over the Seattle Mariners but also created history, unknowingly in the first game of the AL Division Series. As reported by the Houston Astros Yordan Álvarez has become “the first player in MLB postseason history to hit a walk-off HR with their team trailing by multiple runs.”
The Houston Astros have had quite the series in the past six years. With five AL West Division Titles, three AL Pennants, three World Series appearances, and a World Series Championship. The Houston Astros have dominated the AL West Division. But can they recreate history and win the World Series again as in the year 2017? Is a big question that arises in the minds of all MLB fans.
