Astros can't cash in on Springer's heroics

Related Topics: Josh Reddick

Springer rocked Liam Hendriks for a three-run homer -- his 23rd of the season -- in the ninth to cut the lead to 6-4. The Astros then had the winning run at the plate with no outs, but Josh Reddick popped out and Brian McCann hit into a game-ending 3-6-1 double play.

Astros starter Mike Fiers (5-3) lost for the first time since May 20, snapping his personal four-game winning streak. He matched Manaea with 5 2/3 innings but allowed four hits and four runs, three of which scored on Healy's grand slam.
