After the Houston Astros tied it in the ninth via Marwin Gonzalez, Jose Altuve and Carlos Correa go back-to-back in the World Series.
Talk about the definition of clutch.
The Los Angeles Dodgers had everything set up perfectly. Holding a one-run lead in the ninth inning of Game 2 of the 2017 World Series, lights out closer Kenley Jansen was in the game looking to put his team up 2-0 in the series.
Then Marlin Gonzalez happened:
MARWIN IN THE 9TH! TIE GAME.

Then after a scoreless bottom of the ninth, the 2017 AL MVP Jose Altuve happened followed up by young Carlos Correa with a bat flip to die for:

After a bomb via Yasiel Puig smacked to follow it up in the bottom of the 10th, closer Ken Giles is currently looking to lock this one up.
Should the series become tied up at one game apiece, Game 3 will take place on Friday night in Houston.
