What’s the Astros’ formula for early-season success?
On Sunday, the Houston Astros did it again while beating the Tigers 10-8 to split a four-game series. It’s the Astros falling behind early, but coming back to win with their league-leading power while their bullpen and defense combine to stifle the opposition. Per ESPN Stats & Info, over the last five years teams that score five or more runs in the first inning win 86 percent of the time (155-24).
