We only have one baseball game today, and it’s Game 2 of the ALCS. The Astros have one job, and that’s to take down the Sith. So far, it appears as if they have failed.

Justin Verlander will oppose James Paxton, who are ironically the two pitchers to have thrown no hitters against the Jays in the past two years.

Here are tonight’s lineups.
