Dodgers lose in dramatic fashion in 10 innings, completing Houston Astros' sweep

HOUSTON >> The Houston Astros swept a three-game series from the Dodgers in dramatic fashion Sunday, as Jason Castro hit a home run off Chris Hatcher in the 10th inning to seal a 3-2 victory.

Houston tied the game with a run in the ninth inning off Dodgers closer Kenley Jansen. Making his first appearance in seven days, the Dodgers’ closer allowed a leadoff single by Carlos Correa, who stole second base then scored on an RBI single by Marwin Gonzalez.

Hatcher (1-5) faced two batters in the 10th inning. Castro’s home run barely cleared the yellow stripe atop the left-field fence.
