Astros ride on four home-runs to win big

-

George Springer and the Houston Astros picked up right where they left off last post season, hitting four home runs to power past the Cleveland Indians 7-2 on Friday in Game 1 of the AL Division Series.

Alex Bregman, Jose Altuve and Martin Maldonado also connected for the Astros.

Much was made about the pitching prowess these teams possess in the days leading up to this game.

But it was a bunch of longballs to put the Astros ahead in this best-of-five series.
