Astros players frustrated with fans booing in wild card loss to White Sox

Following a 6-3 defeat to the Chicago White Sox in the opening game of the American League Wild Card round, Houston Astros players expressed sharp disappointment with their supporters. A crowd of 34,011 showed up to a venue that holds 40,963, and negative reactions began early after the home side fell behind three runs within the opening two innings.

First baseman Christian Walker voiced his dismay over the lack of positive energy from the home fans during such a high-stakes contest, while relief pitcher Bennett Sousa admitted to feeling angered by the seventh-inning jeers and contrasted the atmosphere unfavorably with opposing stadiums.
