They don’t call Houston “Choke City” for nothing.
I live in the Seattle area; so, I am a Mariner's fan. When Houston switched from NL to AL, we got them in our division. For the past few years they have dominated the AL West, so all I could hope for was a possible Wild Card berth. Mariners were very streaky this year, so it was even more frustrating then usual.
Anyway, yesterday I was watching the Astros vs Yankees game and something occurred to me. There was a time, in the AL West, when the Oakland A's were quite dominant (yes, I am dating myself as an old lady). They were a very good team during the regular season. However, they would have problems in post season. So, I am now wondering if the Astros are falling into that rut. A good regular season team; but, they seem to have problems in the post season.
