Josh Hader failed to come through when the Houston Astros needed him the most.
Houston's high-priced closer entered a 2–2 game in the top of the eighth inning Wednesday afternoon, as his team faced elimination from the playoffs. Trailing the Detroit Tigers 1-0 in the American League wild-card series, Hader stepped to the mound with two on and two outs, needing just one out to rescue his team. He couldn't do it.
