2 out of 3 teams they played in the postseason were in the northeast at parks designed for LH hitters while the Astros played their home games in a RH friendly park in room temperature. The regular season stats, both in aggregate, and on a case by case basis for players, pretty much negate any argument that there was a realized, meaningful advantage.

so Astros didn't cheat? Or they cheated without any advantage to it just because? What is it?

Yankees scored three runs in four ALCS losses. You go 0-4 in that scenario most of the time. To my knowledge (OK, the fact I have common sense), the sign-stealing was not carried out by Astros pitching. Bring on the spitball, different ball theories. Yankees need another excuse for scoring theee runs in four losses.
