EDGE Analysis
Pressly entered with a three-run lead, but he allowed four consecutive batters to reach to start the frame, including a two-run home run by Shohei Ohtani. However, the right-hander was able to settle down and retired three straight to end the inning, stranding the game-tying and go-ahead runs on base. Pressly is now 6-for-6 in save chances this season and remains Houston's top option in the ninth, but the Astros also trust Rafael Montero and Hector Neris in high-leverage, late-inning situations as well.
