*Jake Marisnick hit a game-tying homer in the 9th inning and Evan Gattis worked a walk off walk after Lance McCullers' quality start, and the Astros were able to salvage a game against the Royals with a 5-4 win. Gattis was 2x3 with three walks.
*It was the second 9th inning homer of Marisnick's career, and the latest he had ever tied a game with a homer. No one had ever hit a home run off of Kelvin Herrera's slider before yesterday.
*George Springer is the first player in MLB history to hit three leadoff homers in the first seven games of a season.
