Turang’s 10th-inning sacrifice fly lifts the Brewers past the Astros 5-4

HOUSTON (AP) — Jackson Chourio and David Hamilton both homered and Brice Turang’s tie-breaking RBI on a sacrifice fly in the 10th inning lifted the Milwaukee Brewers to a 5-4 win over the Houston Astros Friday night.

Automatic runner Christian Yelich started the 10th on second base and moved to third when Chourio was out on a fly ball to center field. Turang’s fly ball to right field off Alimber Santa (0-1) was just deep enough to allow Yelich to slide safely into home before the throw to put the Brewers on top.

Trevor Megill struck out two in the 10th for his seventh save.The Brewers trailed by three before Chourio’s two-run home run cut the lead to 4-3 in the fifth. They tied it 4-all when a run scored on a groundout by Jake Bauers with one out in the eighth inning.

The Astros loaded the bases with one out in the ninth, but Abner Uribe (3-2) struck out Brice Matthews before retiring Isaac Paredes on a pop out to send it to the 10th.
