The Detroit Tigers showed quite a bit of fight over the weekend and in particular, on Sunday, but Jose Altuve‘s walk off hit lifted the Astros to a, 6-5, victory and series win over the Tigers.
Detroit relief pitcher Tom Gorzelanny recorded the first two outs of the ninth before yielding a triple to Astros No. 9 hitter Jake Marisnick. Gorzelanny made a mistake, throwing a pitch too far inside, and Marisnick killed it off the wall in right-center field.
Tigers manager Brad Ausmus yanked Gorzelanny before the next batter, but on Alex Wilson‘s first pitch, Altuve hit a line drive over Anthony Gose‘s head to win it.
