MEXICO CITY, OCTOBER 16 (EL UNIVERSAL) .- Thirty-four zeros populated the T-Mobile Park board where the Houston Astros and Seattle Mariners engaged in a pitching battle, and one hit changed the course of the duel.
A dozen pitchers finished ninth in 18 battle innings; eight was enough for the Texans to win 1-0 and enter their sixth consecutive AL league series.
It is a ninth that has been able to renew itself while remaining the protagonist in the diamond. An example of this is Jeremy Peña, who hit the wall at the top of the 18th inning at 25 and took the lead (1-0).
A blow from which the locals would never recover, who had Luis García in the winner of the third game of the series, which ended with a sweep in favor of the Astros (3-0). Starting Wednesday, the Houston team will be looking for a spot in the World Series.
