People in Houston probably thought it would have been hard to top the old Astrodome, which was considered a wonder of the modern world until it was torn down. However, Minute Maid Park, the new home of the Astros, is a great field to watch a game because it was directly engineered for only baseball. Fans have a great view to cheer on their team in any seat in this ball park.

Houston Astros History

Before they were ever known as the Astros, the ball club in Houston was originally name the Colt .45's after the popular revolvers that cowboys used to wear. However, after their first three seasons, the name was changed to the Astros because the stadium was named the Astrodome . Both of these names have their roots in the NASA program. Since then the Astros have been a great ball club.

Since their inception, the Astros have had a tough road because of the intense competition they faced in the National League. They have had many star players work for the ball club over the years including Nolan Ryan, Jose Cruz, and Roger Metzger. However, there always seemed to be a team that would narrowly edge "the Stros", as they are called, from capturing a World Championship.

However, this is not to suggest that the Astros have not had their fair share of being a prominent team. Between 1997 and 2005, the Astros were the dominant team in the NL Central division. With such future hall of famers as Roger Clemens and Craig Biggio, the Astros went to the post season six times and finally won their first National League Pennant in 2005.
