Gurriel walks it off again, Astros win second straight

In Friday night’s game, Yuli Gurriel hit a solo home run to give the Astros the win in the bottom of the 10th inning, and he did it again Saturday night, this time with a walk-off double. The Astros won the game 6-5.

Two days in a row, and both times in the bottom of the 10th, Gurriel came up with a chance to win the game for the Astros, and he delivered. He is the first Astro since Geoff Blum in 2009 to have back-to-back walk-off hits, and the first since Craig Biggio in 1991 to do it both times in extra innings.
