It was a big game for Alvarez, as he hit a three-run walk-off home run in the ninth inning that catapulted the Astros to an 8-7 victory after trailing against the Mariners, making the series 1-0. But the magic didn't stop there.
Alvarez made history by being the first player in MLB postseason history to hit a walk-off home run with his team trailing by multiple runs.
And he did it again in Game 2 after the Astros were down 2-1.
