I would hope that no one on the Astros celebrated prematurely. But that very well may have been the case.
There was some talk about the Astro's mini celebration after game 4 on Sunday by Cards players. I think some of the Cards players and fans thought the Stros were celebrating just a little too much without the 4th win.
One thing you will notice on Tony's team is dicipline and hard play. He wouldn't let them celebrate the Division clinch until the magic number was actually zero, even though they clinched earlier with the head to head tie breaker.

Congrats...Game 7 will be awesome...and the big monkey will be on the 'Stros back..
BTW..off-topic question on the ALCS game...If, instead of rolling the ball to the mound, which allowed AJP to run to first, if the Angels catcher had tossed the ball into the stands, and the fans held it, then the runner could have gone all the way home...that's how I read the rule..is that correct?..Man could you imagine that pic...a fan holding the ball, laughing at the A's player.which AJP walks around the bases...Or, there could have been a CWS gand next to him, who punched the guy in the mouth, grabbed the ball, and threw it back onto the field..
