VIDEO: Jose Altuve Opens Scoring in Game 3 With 420-Foot Homer Off Luis Severino

Fans geared up for a pitchers duel in Game 3 of the ALCS between Gerrit Cole and Luis Severino, and before all the fans could get in their seat, we already have a run on the board, as Houston Astros star second baseman Jose Altuve jumped on the first pitch and went bridge to give his club a 1-0 lead.

I think Astros manager A.J. Hinch moving Altuve up to the second spot has worked, don't ya think?

If that's a sign of things to come today, it might begin raining in New York quicker than everyone envisioned. The top of the first ended with just one run, but Luis Severino's 36 pitches did not bode well.
