VIDEO: James Harden and Russell Westbrook Were Sitting Right Behind Home Plate at ALCS Game 6
By Karl Rasmussen
We've already seen overwhelming support for the Houston Astros from the Texans, and now it looks like Rockets players are getting in on the action. Spotted right behind home plate at ALCS Game 6 on Saturday night was Houston's star tandem of Russell Westbrook and James Harden. They had the best seats in the house and were waving some orange towels around while rooting for the Astros.

The reunited teammates are bonding in the spotlight, as they're sitting right in the view of the camera.
Clearly Russ is fitting right into his new home in Houston, and now that he has an MLB team in his city he's already out there supporting the team.
Sitting next to Brodie and the Beard, you ask? None other than Rockets owner Tilman Fertitta.

With the NBA season set to tip off on Tuesday, and the Rockets first game comes on Thursday, so this may be Westbrook and Harden's last chance to have some leisure time ahead of the new campaign.
