The Houston Astros are a Major League Baseball team located in Houston, Texas. They are currently a member of the National League Central Division. In 2013, the Astros will move to the American League West Division. The Astros have played their home games at Minute Maid Park since 2000.
The Astros were established as the Houston Colt .45s in 1962. The current name was adopted three years later when they moved into the Astrodome, the world's first domed sports stadium. The name references Houston's role as the center of the U.S. Space Program.
The Astros have one World Series appearance, in 2005 against the Chicago White Sox.
The Houston Astros are a member of the National League Central Division. In late 2011, Houston businessman Jim Crane purchased the Astros from Drayton McLane. As a condition of the sale, Major League Baseball required a move to the American League West Division, effective for the 2013 season. After over fifty years in the National League, this move is unpopular with many Astros fans.

Plot: First of a trilogy of films takes an unflinching look at the underbelly of little league baseball in Southern California. Former minor leaguer Morris Buttermaker is a lazy, beer swilling swimming pool cleaner who takes money to coach the Bears, a bunch of disheveled misfits who have virtually no baseball talent. Realizing his dilemma, Coach Buttermaker brings aboard girl pitching ace Amanda Whurlizer, the daughter of a former girlfriend, and Kelly Leak, a motorcycle punk who happens to be the best player around. Brimming with confidence, the Bears look to sweep into the championship game and avenge an earlier loss to their nemesis, the Yankees.
