Evan Gattis drove in two runs in a four-run seventh inning, and the Houston Astros continued their late-inning magic as they rallied for a 5-2 victory over the visiting Baltimore Orioles on Monday night.
The Astros have scored a major-league-leading 94 runs in the seventh inning or later this season.
They trailed by one entering the seventh before a leadoff single by Chris Carter knocked starter Ubaldo Jimenez out of the game. He was replaced by Brad Brach (3-1), who walked Luis Valbuena before a pinch-hit single by Hank Conger loaded the bases.
George Springer singled to tie it up with one out before Jose Altuve’s sacrifice fly put Houston on top.
