Houston Astros Among MLB Teams Honored With Cool Playoff Art

A North Carolina artist has honored the Major League Baseball teams in the 2018 post-season playoffs with a unique mural that highlights each teams success on the baseball diamond, including the Houston Astros.

Last year, the Astros brought the first-ever World Series title to the Bayou City, and they are hoping to repeat that success.

If that's the case, the Astros will have consecutive World Series years on their cool orange mural created by Matt Burt, a graphic artist who works for Versus Reviews.

Each graphic has the names of the World Series Championship players for the team (or the NL Championship for the Brewers and Rockies) arranged to form the skyline of the team's city. Underneath are the names of their 2018 40-man roster.

The Astros kick off the first round of the playoffs in the America League Division Series against the Cleveland Indians on Friday night at Minute Maid Park. The Astros will play one more home game before heading to Cleveland where they will take on the Tribe on Monday at 7 p.m. CT.
