One Step Closer To Championship For Pena, Astos

The Astros are one win away from winning the World Series.

Houston edged the Phillies 3-2 in Game Five of the Fall Classic in Philadelphia. Rookie Jeremy Pena - who grew up in Providence, finished with three hits and two RBI, including a go-ahead solo homer in the fourth inning.

Houston would hold the lead from that point on as it took a 3-2 lead in the series.

Noah Syndergaard was charged with the loss for Philadelphia, which went 1-for-7 with runners in scoring position.

The Phillies will look to force a winner-take-all Game Seven when the series shifts back to Houston tomorrow night.

Philly turns to Zack Wheeler on the mound, while the Astros send Framber Valdez to toe the rubber.
