After the Rangers took a 2–0 lead over the Astros in the ALCS on Monday, Fox Sports’s Derek Jeter was quick to pump the brakes at any notion that the series was over for Houston. In doing so, his coworker and former arch-rival David Ortiz couldn’t help himself and reminded Jeter of a very painful memory.
“Just because they’re down two games, it’s not over,” Jeter said Monday night. “We’ve lost a series being up 3–0. I don’t want to bring it back up, but we’ve lost a series up 3–0.”
“You did?!” Ortiz said sarcastically.
