By Adrian Dorney Modified 20 Sep 2022 Follow Us Comment Share Houston Astros v Detroit Tigers The Houston Astros are quickly becoming a dynasty. Led by legendary manager Dusty Baker, the Astros have clinched their 5th AL West divisional title in 6 years. Although the Astros fell just short of a World Series last year, losing to the Atlanta Braves, they look poised to perhaps go the full way in 2022.

Fans have taken to Twitter to commend this extraordinary club on once again emerging as the uncontested victors of baseball's toughest division.

Houston Astros the natural champions of the AL West

After shutting out the Tampa Bay Rays in a 4-0 victory last night, the Houston Astros have once again been crowned with the AL West title. Luis Garcia gave up only 2 hits in 5 innings before the bullpen closed out the affair.

However, the team has rallied to amasse a record of 97-51 this year, putting them in first place by a wide margin of 15 games.

The Astros lost their All-Star shortstop Carlos Correa in free agency last year when he signed a 3-year deal worth more than $100 million with the Minnesota Twins. ???? ?? ?? ??? ??? @damonfan347@espn @astros The AL runs through us 1@espn @astros The AL runs through us But the Houston Astros proved they had depth beyond Correa. Three quarters of their best-in-baseball midfield stuck around - Alex Bregman, Jose Altuve and Yuli Gurriel.

Before Correa's departure, the quartet had started in more World Series game than any other infield combination in the history of the world-famous autumn competition. rabidhippo@rabidhippo1@espn @astros It's easier when you cheat1@espn @astros It's easier when you cheat The Houston Astros, however, are not without controversy. In 2017 and 2018, the team was at the center of a sign-stealing scandal. This damaged the team's reputation and fanfare as it was revealed the team was allegedly using various techniques to steal pitching signals from opposing teams.
