ALWAYS YORDAN! Astros win final series against Mariners with Álvarez’s walk-off hit

In a low-scoring one that went 10 innings, Yordan Álvarez had the final word for the Astros, who beat the Mariners 3-2 to win the final regular-season game against each other. While Álvarez provided the big hit, Jake Odorizzi was at his best and worked seven scoreless innings to hold Seattle’s hitters for the biggest part of the game.

Odorizzi was in total control throughout his entire outing. He allowed two singles, walked two hitters, and struck out eight. He didn’t get a decision, but played a key role on the result.

Odo had 15 swings and misses to tie his personal-best as an Astro – the other time he caused 15 whiffs was on July 10, when he threw seven scoreless innings as well with seven punchouts against the Athletics.
