Here’s how you can watch Friday evening’s Yankees vs. Astros ALCS Game 1 from Houston online.
For many, this ALCS match-up represents the unpredictable nature of baseball. Who’d’ve thunk going into the year that the New York Yankees would make it to the ALCS? Not many people, that’s for sure. On the other hand, the Houston Astros were expected to be here. Hell, Sports Illustrated called it three years ago. Regardless of who you predicted, the Astros and Yankees will now duke it out in a best-of-seven series for a spot in the World Series.
In 2017, the Astros won over 100 games for just the second time in franchise history. It seems like just yesterday that the ‘stros were continually a lock to lose 100 games. But now, here we are. Thanks to Carlos Correa, Jose Altuve and the rest of the young Astros core, Houston is a legitimate contender for at least for foreseeable future.

However, don’t let the records fool you. The New York Yankees are not afraid of a challenge. The Bronx Bombers are actually coming off a series win over the Indians, another 100+ win squad. The Yankees became just the 10th team in MLB history to come back from being down 2-0 in the ALDS. With all the confidence in the world now, Didi Gregorius and company are headed to Houston.
Get used to seeing these two American League clubs square-off against one another. With the young talent that each team has, these powerhouses will reign for years to come.
