CLEVELAND -- Just as fans began to file out at Progressive Field on Sunday, the Indians mounted an improbable five-run rally to force extra innings against the Astros.
Third baseman Jose Ramirez started the comeback with a double that came off a 17-pitch at-bat against reliever Ken Giles. Ramirez's hit was one of three straight to start the rally.
Ramirez doubles on epic at-bat Yonder Alonso, Jason Kipnis and pinch-hitter Erik Gonzalez each delivered RBI hits off Giles and Will Harris, before Francisco Lindor hit an RBI single off Hector Rondon and Michael Brantley followed with a deflected liner into left to tie the game.
