Framber Valdez

Framber Valdez set the tone for the Houston Astros 9-1, Game 5 ALCS victory over the Boston Red Sox with a brilliant performance on the mound. The 27-year-old southpaw scattered just three hits over a career-high eight innings pitched, allowed just one run and struck out five batters. Valdez’s effort on the rubber sends the Astros back to Houston being one win away from a World Series berth.
