The 2017 ALCS is all knotted up after the New York Yankees came back from a 4-0 seventh-inning deficit to score six unanswered runs and defeat the Houston Astros 6-4 on Tuesday night at Yankee Stadium.
It tied the series at two games apiece after the Yankees dropped the first two games of the ALCS in Houston.
They’ll face one of the pitchers that beat them on Wednesday night in Game 5 in Astros ace Dallas Keuchel. In Game 1, Keuchel went seven innings, allowing no runs on just four hits while striking out 10 as the Astros went on to take the series opener 2-1.
The difference is, Aaron Judge’s bat has come alive over the last two games and actually provides a scare out of the No. 2 spot in the Yankees lineup.
For New York, they’ll trot out Masahiro Tanaka, who faced Keuchel in Game 1 and performed admirably, going six innings but giving up two runs.
Given the atmosphere and mystique of Yankee Stadium, things could play out much differently compared to the opening game of this series.
