Game Hero, 62 - 76

Hunter Pence
 
  • 3 for 4, walk, double, triple
  • 2 runs scored, 2 RBI
  • .430 WPA
With his huge eighth-inning triple, Pence becomes one of only 12 players in team history to compile at least 25 doubles, at least 8 triples, and at least 10 home runs. And he's done all that in less than 100 games.

And with this thrilling win, the Astros move to 5 - 14 when allowing 15 hits, and win their first of the year, moving to 1 - 11, when giving up 7 runs.
