Playing Through Pain

Jose Altuve underwent knee surgery:

After the Astros’ season-ending 4-1 loss, Altuve said this was “absolutely” the worst pain he’s ever played with.

“I feel really, really bad for not being on the field for my team,” Altuve said. “But one thing you can know is that I gave everything I had — healthy, not healthy, that was all I have.”

Altuve, 28, batted .315 with 13 home runs and 61 RBIs in 137 games this season for the Astros. He batted .265 in eight postseason games.

Altuve on one leg is still a pretty good hitter. He might have posted an even high BA if his home run was not brought back due to fan interference.
