“Like I said, just ended up throwing a lot of balls right down the middle,” Heaney said, “and that’s obviously not a recipe for success.” Heaney’s outing lasted only two-thirds of an inning, over before it started, the shortest start of his career, the shortest start in Rangers postseason history. But the Houston Astros flexed their might. Heaney was the man the Rangers called on for their start in Game 4 of the American League Championship Series. “I just made a lot of mistakes over the middle of the plate,” Heaney said. The explanations instead were straight and to the point. It was obvious what went wrong. No burning of incense or offerings made to the baseball gods. So after it was all over Thursday night in the Rangers’ clubhouse, there were no excuses. They needed Andrew Heaney and Dane Dunning to rise to the challenge in the same way they did against Baltimore in the ALDS.
