Astros Advance to Round 3
The Houston Astros and Texas Rangers didn't hold back anything in the Round 2, with each team pulling out all the stops in an effort to advance to the Round 3.

Houston won the final game by a score of 2-1 at Minute Maid Park and that concluded the series, 2-1.

"Relief is the biggest thing," Houston left fielder Michael Brantley said when asked how he felt. "It's a grind both mentally and physically to have a long series like this, but our guys stuck with it and Texas deserves credit for the hard fight."

Brantley paced the Houston offence and earned MVP honors. For the series, he hit .500 with a .636 on-base percentage, 1 home runs, 4 RBI and scored 1 runs.

The Round 3 matchups and schedule will be announced after the Round 2 finishes.
