The Houston Astros became a symbol of hope and strength for the city after Hurricane Harvey struck in August and caused widespread devastation across the state. Their journey through the postseason all the way to the World Series was a tribute to their hometown as well as an inspiration to a city that refuses to let a hurricane knock it down.
