It's been known for a while, well before their world championship series, that the 'Stros will face off with Philadelphia for a three-game series April 28-30 at Minute Maid Park.
The series finale will now be a nationally televised affair as part of ESPN's "Sunday Night Baseball" slate.
Two Astros matchups were chosen among eight early-season games. Aside from the World Series rematch on April 30, Houston will also face off with its Lone Star Series rivals, the Texas Rangers, on April 16.
