Take a look around the league with Big League Stew's daily wrap up. We'll hit on all of the biggest moments from the day that you may have missed, while providing highlights, photos and interesting stats. The Houston Astros continue to win, and are doing so in the most dramatic fashion. The club picked up another walk-off victory during Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. In order to pick up that walk-off, the team had to mount a comeback against Kenley Jansen. With the club trailing by one run in the bottom of the ninth, they did just that. Carlos Correa led off the frame with a single, starting the rally. Jansen was able to get the next two outs, but Correa managed to steal second with Evan Gattis at the plate. It all came down to Marwin Gonzalez. With two outs, Gonzalez singled to right, scoring Correa and sending the game into extras. That's when Jason Castro struck. With Chris Hatcher on the mound, Castro belted a 96 mph fastball out to left for the walk-off blast. The play was reviewed, but eventually upheld, giving Houston the win. The team continued to show a flair for dramatic, as they've now picked up a walk-off victory in four of their last eight games....
