The Astros complete a sweep of the Indians with an 11 – 3 win in Game 3 of the ALDS. Cleveland heads into the top of the 7th leading 2 – 1 at home after a solid start by Mike Clevinger, but its beleaguered bullpen gives up 9 runs over the next two nightmarish innings to blow the game away. George Springer homers twice and Carlos Correa hits a three-run shot for Houston.
