Jose Siri singled in automatic runner Nick Madrigal from third in the bottom of the 10th to give the Los Angeles Angels a 3-2 walk-off victory over the visiting Houston Astros in the rubber game of their three-game series on Wednesday night.
Siri lined an 0-2 fastball by Houston reliever Bryan Abreu (2-3) to left field to drive in Madrigal, who had advanced to third on a bunt single by Donovan Walton.
Logan O’Hoppe went 2-for-2 with a home run and Mike Trout also homered, walked and stole a base for Los Angeles. Ryan Zeferjahn (3-3) pitched a hitless inning of relief to pick up the win.
Shay Whitcomb and Cam Smith homered for Houston, which finished with just four hits.
Los Angeles took a 1-0 lead in the first inning on Trout’s 15th home run, a 404-foot line drive to center. It was the 419th home run of Trout’s career, which ranks 55th on the major league all-time list.
The Angels extended the lead to 2-0 in the fifth on O’Hoppe’s third homer of the season, a 423-foot drive to the back of the bullpen in left.
Houston cut the lead to 2-1 when Whitcomb led off the sixth inning with his second homer, a 408-foot line drive to left-center.
The Astros tied it in the eighth when Smith greeted reliever Chase Silseth with his seventh home run to left, setting the stage for Siri’s game-winning single in the 10th.
Los Angeles received another dominant performance by starter Reid Detmers who threw five perfect innings to start the game and allowed one run on just one hit — the home run to Whitcomb — over seven innings. He struck out nine and didn’t walk a batter. He left after throwing 89 pitches, 63 for strikes.
