  • October 13 – Carlos Correa hit a leadoff, walk-off home run in the 11th inning off New York Yankees pitcher J. A. Happ that gave the Houston Astros a 3–2 victory at Minute Maid Park, evening the best-of-seven AL Championship Series at one game apiece. Both teams had excellent performances from their bullpens. Previously, Correa opened the score with an RBI-douuble off Yankees starter James Paxton in the second inning. Paxton departed after just 2⅓ innings, then the Yankees used eight different relievers, who gave up just two hits until the 11th inning. Aaron Judge gave the Yankees a 2–1 lead in the fourth inning with a two-run home run off Astros starter Justin Verlander, which was his only major mistake in his 6⅔ inning brilliant performance, allowing two runs on five hits and two walks along with seven strikeouts. The Astros tied the game 2–2 on a home run by George Springer in the fifth inning. After Verlander exited, the Astros bullpen worked 4⅓ innings and allowed no runs on one hit. Josh James was credited with the win. The series moved to Yankee Stadium for Game 3 on October 15.[1]
