Advance to 5th Straight ALCS

The Houston Astros are headed to the ALCS after defeating the Chicago White Sox 10-1 in Game 4 of the ALDS. Bolstered by a young and explosive lineup and a deep pitching staff, the Astros will pose as a major threat to advance to the World Series. This clinching effort marks the franchise's fifth straight ALCS appearances, tied with the 1971-1975 Oakland Athletics for the second longest streak in Postseason history. The longest streak is held by the 1991-1999 Atlanta Braves.
