Jose Altuve's huge game leads Astros to victory
Houston Astros second baseman Jose Altuve went 3-for-5 with a home run and five RBI's as Houston beat up the Baltimore Orioles 15-8 in a wild game on Friday night.
What It Means:
Altuve put yet another mark on his MVP resume for 2016 by driving in runs with all three of his hits on Friday night. His homer puts him in the 20 home run/20 stolen base club for the first time in his career and it could prove to be worthy of the American League MVP.
Altuve owns an impressive .422 wOBA, which ranks second among all qualified players this season. He is slashing .365/.427/.579 with 20 home runs, 80 RBI's and 26 steals over 546 appearances at the plate. He also has a nERD of 4.60.
