Unless you've been living under a rock or you just hate baseball, you probably already know that the Houston Astros are playing in the World Series this year. In fact, as I write this, they are one game away from either winning their first or losing their second World Series. I may be a little late to the game on this (pun not intended), but here's a bunch of Songs About Houston to honor the team's accomplishments thus far. Don't worry, Dodgers fans, your post is coming up next. Enjoy! ~ JH
