Astros Secure Dramatic Win Over Angels with Wild Pitch in 10th Inning

According to AP MLB, Mauricio Dubón secured Houston Astros’ victory over Los Angeles Angels 3-2 through a wild pitch in the 10th inning on Friday night.

Jeremy Peña and Isaac Paredes opened the game with back-to-back home runs — a feat last achieved by Astros nearly three years ago. Angels’ Yusei Kikuchi then delivered a solid performance with nine strikeouts and no walks in seven innings.

Tension arose in the third inning when Hunter Brown hit Angels shortstop Zach Neto’s elbow with a 95-mph pitch — causing both teams to clear benches but order was quickly restored.

• Jo Adell reduced the deficit with a 426-foot homer
• Rookie Christian Moore tied the game with his first MLB homer

A crucial moment occurred when Jake Meyers made a spectacular catch in left-center field — denying Adell’s potentially game-changing hit. Josh Hader and Bennett Sousa then secured the victory in the final innings.
