When Major League Baseball’s Houston’s Astros made a managerial change from Bo Porter to AJ Hinch in 2014, it symbolized a turning point. Houston was looking to move to the next phase of its rebuilding plan.
With the benefit of hindsight, it was a change that eventually led to an ongoing baseball dynasty in Houston. During Hinch’s five seasons with the team, the Astros finished with one World Series title, two American League pennants and four postseason berths.
