Coming off a 20-hit, 11-run night on Wednesday, the Houston Astros came out looking for a series win against the Athletic’s, but they fell short in the same exact fashion as the first game of the series, this time in extra innings.
That was only made possible when, down to their final four outs and losing 4-1, Astros catcher Victor Caratini turned the game around with one swing of the bat.
After a two-out walk and single put two on, the A’s decided to turn to their closer Mason Miller, who had not allowed a run to the Astros in his career.
