 HOUSTON (AP) - Nearly every seat in the stadium was filled more than 30 minutes before the first pitch and chants of "Let's Go, Astros" broke out as soon as the national anthem ended.
Then came "the moment we've been waiting for, for 44 long seasons," as public-address announcer Bob Ford put it.
"Here come your National League champion Houston Astros," Ford said to even louder cheers and a whiteout of clicking cameras.
