Moving on.
That’s what the Houston Astros did Wednesday night, disposing of the host Minnesota Twins, 3-2, in Game 4 of the best-of-five ALDS.
Twitter users responded to how the Astros pitchers controlled the free-swinging Twins, who struck out 52 times during the series.
With the victory, the Astros advanced to their seventh straight ALCS.
Waiting for them will be the in-state-rival Texas Rangers.
