This series is headed back to Houston for a Game 6 Friday, at the least, and a gamble by Boston manager Alex Cora, turning to his ace Nathan Eovaldi to pitch the ninth inning, backfired, as the former Yankee, throwing on two days\u2019 rest, got charged with four runs while recording just two outs.<\/p>\n<p>Carlos Correa, no surprise, sparked the rally by leading off the ninth inning with a double. He scored the game-winning run on Jason Castro\u2019s two-out single after Eovaldi thought he had Castro struck out on a 1-and-2 curveball that grazed the strike zone, and the runs flowed like lava from there, Michael Brantley providing the key hit with a bases-clearing, three-run double.<\/p>\n<p>Even less surprising than Correa\u2019s clutch moment, Jose Altuve put the Astros back into this game, his solo, eighth-inning homer over the Green Monster, against former Yankees minor leaguer Garrett Whitlock, tying the proceedings at 2-2. That marked Altuve\u2019s 21st career postseason homer, putting ahead of newly minted Hall of Famer Derek Jeter for third place all time behind only Red Sox icon Manny Ramirez (29) and Jeter\u2019s Yankees teammate Bernie Williams (22).<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"656\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/Altuve.Correa.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1024\" alt=\"Alex Cora, who had a big ninth-inning double, congratulates Jose Altuve after the Houston second baseman belted the game-tying homer in the eigth inning of the Astros' 9-2 win over the Red Sox in Game 4 of the ALCS.\" class=\"wp-image-19859245\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/Altuve.Correa.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1536 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/Altuve.Correa.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/Altuve.Correa.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>Alex Cora, who had a big ninth-inning double, congratulates Jose Altuve after the Houston second baseman belted the game-tying homer in the eighth inning of the Astros\u2019 9-2 win over the Red Sox in Game 4 of the ALCS.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">UPI<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Altuve\u2019s homer pumped up the volume following six innings of scoreless ball.
