After a historic Game 4 win in Philadelphia, the Houston Astros will turn things over to Justin Verlander tonight aiming for a 3-2 World Series lead over the Phillies and a chance to clinch at home tomorrow night.
After allowing five homers and getting blanked by the Phillies in Game 3 on Tuesday, the Astros punched back in the most astounding way possible in last night's series-tying 5-0 win.
The offense finally broke its drought with a five-run fifth, and Cristian Javier and relievers Bryan Abreu, Rafael Montero, and Ryan Pressly comb ined for just the second no-hitter in World Series history, following Don Larsen's perfect game in 1956.
