The 2022 World Series matchup is here: Game 1 of the Houston Astros vs. Philadelphia Phillies is set for Friday. Both teams clinched their respective pennant on Sunday and enter fresh after four days off. The Astros were the No. 1 seed on the American League side of the bracket and steamrolled their way to the AL crown. Houston is a flawless 7-0 to start these playoffs and capped off an ALCS sweep of the Yankees in The Bronx. They will host Games 1 and 2 (and, potentially, Games 6 and 7) at Minute Maid Park.
The last team the Astros lost against? That would be the Phillies, who clinched a playoff spot in Houston on Oct. 3. They now have ambitions of celebrating in Houston again after a magical run that has seen them capture their first National League pennant since 2009. The sixth-seeded Phillies were the final team in the NL bracket in these expanded playoffs, but are 9-2 in the postseason and have knocked out the NL Central champion Cardinals, the NL East champion Braves and the upstart Padres. Bryce Harper hit the biggest home run of his life Sunday, launching a two-run blast in the eighth inning to give the Phillies an NLCS Game 5 win over San Diego.
It’s been an exciting October so far, but fans are going to have to wait four baseball-less days until the World Series gets going. Both teams will be well-rested by the time the fist pitch of the Fall Classic is thrown Friday night.
