HOUSTON (AP) — Jose Altuve hit a three-run homer to cap a startling six-run rally in the bottom of the ninth inning, setting off a frenzied celebration and lifting the Houston Astros over the New York Yankees 8-7. The Astros had been shut out by the Yankees in the previous two games, highlighted by ace Gerrit Cole’s three-hitter in a 4-0 win on Saturday night. But in a series where the teams took turns trolling each other after some lingering ill will over the years, Houston had the final say. Altuve's homer came with one out against Chad Green, and the Astros star had his jersey ripped off by jubilant teammates.
