Yesterday's game really showed how the Astros are a little better than the Yankees in all phases of the game. Better starting pitching, better bullpen, better hitting, better managing. The Yankees are a good team, a fun team, but the Astros are a great team. It's always frustrating losing in the playoffs, especially close games, but you can't get too mad when the other team is clearly better.
It would help if the vaunted Yankees offense wasn't just DJ LeMahieu and Gleyber Torres at this point. All the swing-from-the-heels sluggers are being neutralized by Houston's elite staff.

Even though I'm pulling for the Astros, I've got to admit I do enjoy watching Torres hit. That Game 1 performance was awesome!
