Karma

Jose Altuve and Alex Bregman couldn’t find the right words to apologize last offseason for the Astros’ sign-cheating scandal. Now, Altuve can’t find his glove in the ALCS, and Bregman can’t buy a hit. So sad. Dusty Baker is the perfect manager for a team like the Astros. Nothing is ever Dusty’s fault, not back taxes or Barry Bonds’ or the Cubs’ collapse against the Marlins in the 2003 NLCS. Houston makes the fifth team Baker has graced with his presence. Never a World Series winner, though. But, hey, his Astros are only down to the Rays, three games to none. Karma, anyone?
