HOUSTON -- On a night the Astros clinched a postseason berth, Yuli Gurriel had a celebratory game with two home runs and a career-high seven RBIs.
The Astros clinched their third playoff spot in four seasons with an 11-3 win over the Angels at Minute Maid Park. Their magic number to clinch was 1, but Tampa Bay defeated Toronto, forcing the Astros to win in order to punch their ticket. Houston's magic number to clinch the American League West currently stands at 6, pending the result of Oakland's game against Minnesota.
Gurriel's first-inning grand slam provided all the runs Astros starter Gerrit Cole would need.
