Gross stops Dodger gain with throw and baserunning
Astros rookie Greg Gross preserved a 3-2 10 inning win over the Dodgers by throwing out pinch runner Rick Auerbach at the plate in the ninth and later scoring the winning run in the 10th. Dodgers tied it 2-2 on Ken McMullen’s pinch homer, but Gross’s defense and timely hit kept L A from gaining in the pennant race.
