Astros Fan Buys Beer for Entire Section After Predicting George Springer's HR

When Houston Astros outfielder George Springer led off the bottom of the fifth inning of Game 1 of an American League Division Series with a home run, Astros fan Eddie Flores likely went through a wide range of emotions.

Flores had plenty of reason to be excited, of course. Most importantly, his team's lead had just been extended to 3-0. Not only that, but he also predicted the Springer dinger.

However, according to the Houston Chronicle's Matt Young, Flores had promised his entire section free beer if Springer went yard.
