The only thing more exciting than this game...would be this game being played in the playoffs.
Up, down, up, down, sure to win, sure to lose, and finally, defensive heroics by rookie Chas McCormick, and the winning RBI single by rookie Jake Meyers, finally put the Astros on top.
The Astros got yet another early lead, this time on a 456 Yordan Alvarez home run in the first inning.
That 2-0 score held until the fifth inning when Jason Castro hit a solo homer to extend the Astros lead.
Besides the homer, Castro had a good night defensively, throwing out two Angels baserunners.
