Houston owns a 1-0 series lead
The Astros can take a stranglehold of their American League Division Series with the Mariners on Thursday.
Houston stunned Seattle on Tuesday when Yordan Álvarez smoked a three-run, walk-off home run that gave the reigning AL champions an 8-7 Game 1 win. If the Mariners suffer a second consecutive defeat at Minute Maid Park, they will head back to Seattle with their season on the line.
The Astros will send left-hander Frambler Valdez to the mound in hopes of taking a commanding 2-0 lead in the best-of-five series. The M’s will counter with mid-season trade acquisition Luis Castillo, who pitched 7 1/3 scoreless innings in Toronto last Friday.
