Almonte’s Catch Huge For Cleveland in 4-3 Win Over Astros

Cleveland– The Indians topped the Houston Astros 4-3 on Thursday to get the series win; but if it hadn’t been for a defensive play in the first inning, the win may have never happened.

The Astros started off the evening strong. After Josh Reddick recorded a double, Norichika Aoki followed that up with a single. After Corey Kluber walked Brian McCann, bases were loaded with one out.

Kluber struck out Evan Gattis before Yuli Gurriel stepped up to the plate. On the 3-2 pitch he hit a bomb to right field that looked like it would score at least two runs.
