Game two between the Houston Astros and the Boston Red Sox was pretty much a repeat of game one. The Astros took the early lead. The Red Sox threatened. The starting pitchers struggled. The Astros hit a couple of homers. The Astros won 8-2, just like Thursday. The Astros lead the best-of-five playoff series with the Red Sox by a 2-0 margin. The teams now head to Boston for game three on Sunday. It could all end there if Brad Peacock can shut down the Red Sox. (Photos by Eric Sauseda for the Houston Press)
