Alex Bregman drove home pinch-runner Derek Fisher from second base with a two-out single in the last half of the tenth inning as the Houston Astros overcame 4-0 and 7-4 deficits en route to a game-five 13-12 home win over the Los Angeles Dodgers in the fifth game of the World Series, contested on Sunday.

Seven home runs (one of them a two-run shot by Houston's Carlos Correa, who's pictured here) were hit in the game.

The Astros, who now lead the series three games to two, can wrap up their first-ever world championship with a game-six road win in Los Angeles in Tuesday.
