Evan Gattis sends two sailing as Astros squeak by Oakland
Houston Astros catcher Evan Gattis crushed a pair of home runs in Wednesday's 6-5 win over the Oakland Athletics.
What It Means:
Gattis gave the Astros a 4-1 lead with a sixth inning two-run blast, and then added a solo dinger in the eighth. This gives him five home runs in his last 10 games (40 plate appearances) and 30 for the season (466 plate appearances).
