The Rays came close to taking this series in Game 4, but the Astros hung on in the ninth to play another day.
Still, only one team that went down three games to none in a MLB postseason series managed to come back to win it (2004 Red Sox). These Astros aren’t that team.
Meanwhile, the Dodgers ended Game 3 of their series in the first inning. This would have been interesting:
The #Braves can technically forfeit this game per Rule 7.03(a)(3) or Rule 7.03(b), and per Rule 9.03(e)(2) and Rule 9.03(e) Comment, they would lose the game, 9-0, and all of the statistics and records from this game would be struck from the record books.

Of course, no MLB team would ever do that. Would have saved their bullpen, though.
