According to KTRK-TV, the jet’s owner said he and his friends were on their way to Boston for the game when the plane crashed shortly after takeoff.

Sgt. Stephen Woodward of the Texas Department of Public Safety said the plane had trouble taking off and didn’t leave the ground before sliding to a halt and catching fire. Onboard were twenty-one persons, including 18 passengers and three crew members. Only minor injuries were reported; the youngest passenger was ten years old.

“They were stunned, they were very, very stunned, but they did self-extricate, and we can’t tell you how they did it or how they did it, but the plane was fully involved when we arrived,” Waller-Harris Emergency Services’ Tim Gibson said. Despite two people being taken to the hospital, the tragedy could have been a lot worse.

“I mean, they count as one [loss],” Astros manager Dusty Baker remarked following Game 3, according to the Astros official website. “We come back and win [Tuesday], tying the series. You don’t like it, I mean. I’m not thrilled about it, but you have to flush this one because you won’t be able to bring this or the last one back until tomorrow. So, as I previously stated, you may not like it tonight, but the sun will rise in the morning.”

The Astros have made the ALCS the last five seasons and have been in two World Series, winning one. The Red Sox are vying for their second World Series title in four years, and they’re fifth since 2004.
