Box Score of the Week (Final one of 2020)

The World Series matchup is now set, so let's take a look at a Fall Classic contest this week. Game 7 of the 2017 series featuring the Houston Asterisks Astros and Los Angeles Dodgers.


-----------------------------------------


Astros teammates Charlie Morton and Lance McCullers both pitched in this game. They then opposed each other in Game 7 of the 2020 ALCS when McCullers was on the mound for Houston and Morton for the Tampa Bay Rays. This marked the first time in postseason history where a pitching duo pitched in a winner-take-all contest as both teammates and opponents.
