A night after coming through in the clutch for his team with a home run, Houston Astros catcher Robinson Chirinos did it again on Saturday night with a two-run blast.
Chirinos stepped to the plate with Houston leading 2-0 and in need of insurance runs. When Washington Nationals pitcher Patrick Corbin made a mistake in the zone, Chirinos uncorked a moonshot into the seats for a 4-0 lead.
On a lineup with Alex Bregman, Jose Altuve and George Springer, Chirinos is quickly making his case to be World Series MVP if the Astros make a comeback to win this series. The 35-year-old catcher is certainly making the best of his trip to the World Series.
