MILWAUKEE — George Springer was just trying to get a hit in the 10th inning to start a rally. He did a lot more than that.
Springer homered to start the inning and lifted the Houston Astros to a 3-2 win over the Milwaukee Brewers on Monday.
“I’m just trying to get on base,” Springer said. “Leading off the inning, hopefully I can get to first base somehow and let the other guys do the work, but I was able to hit one hard.”
Springer’s 30th homer came off reliever Junior Guerra (8-5) and put the Astros ahead.
