Got Milk?

Colton Cowser made a terrific play to keep the Orioles inning alive in the bottom of the sixth. Trailing the Astros 2-0, with men on first and second, Cowser grounded to first baseball Jon Singleton, playing behind the bag. Pitcher Framber Valdez did not rush to cover, because it looked like it would be an easy play. Singleton did not move quickly to first, while Cowser flew down the line, slid head first over the bag, beating Singleton by half a step to load the bases. Jackson Holliday then hit a bases clearing double to give the Orioles a 3-2 lead.

Lots of batters might have taken their time on the obvious out, but Cower turned his hustle into three runs.
