A little heavenly intervention never hurts in search of a World Series berth.
Before Game 6 of the American League Championship Series, Sister Mary Catherine of the so-called “Rally Nuns” -- a group of Houston nuns who cheered on the Astros in Game 1 -- threw out the first pitch at Minute Maid Park. But first, she did a familiar celebration.
On the way to the mound, she tapped two fingers to her wrist to indicate that it’s her time. It was in tribute to Astros shortstop Carlos Correa, who broke out the "My Time" celebration after swatting a go-ahead solo home run in Game 1.
This wasn’t the first time the celebration has been mimicked in the series. Red Sox pitcher Eduardo Rodriguez broke out the celebration after striking out seven across six innings in Game 3 at Fenway Park.
The Astros took a 3-2 series lead into Game 6 and punched their ticket to the World Series with a sparkling 5-0 win over the Boston Red Sox.
