QUICK HITS
Astros fans are getting accustomed to their team being in the news for all the wrong reasons.
But this is nothing new to fans of the New England Patriots, who don't seem to be bothered by any type of media criticism.
ESPN 97.5's Charlie Pallilo discusses what the Astros and their fans can learn from the Patriots.
The Houston Astros are coming off a big win over the Orioles and hopefully things are getting back on track as the club makes their final push for the playoffs with only nine games left.
While we're all excited about the latest walk-off win, we can't ignore the fact that the team has dropped three straight series. Two of which were against the two worst teams in baseball (the Royals and A's).
We've all heard the reports about Chas McCormick's playing time, the batter's eye in center field causing the Astros to struggle, and three team meetings over the past month.
With that in mind, are these distractions a factor in how the team is performing on the field?
Be sure to watch the video as we break it all down.
