The Astros finished with the third best road record in baseball at 51-30, one game behind the Orioles and the Braves who both went 52-29. Including the playoffs, the Orioles finished 52-30. The Braves finished 52-31.
The Astros now stand alone as the best road team in 2023 with a spectacular 55-30 record.
But it's the final game of a road series where the Astros were true asskickers. They went an incredible 21-5 in the final game of a road series, 22-5 if you count their Game 4 clincher last week in Minnesota.
That 22-5 record stood at only 7-4 after a 5-0 loss in Cleveland on June 11th.
Here are the results of the next 16 road finales for the defending World Series champions:
June 25th - they defeated the Dodgers, 6-5
June 29th - they defeated the Cardinals, 14-0
July 3rd - they defeated the Rangers, 12-11

After losing in Baltimore on August 10th, they won their last 7 regular season road finales by an average score of 10-3!
After the 8-3 win in Seattle on September 27th, Dusty Baker said "We had to have that game. That was another example of how important getaway days are. I don't know what our record is, but it's pretty good. These guys are conscious of it."
