Watch as you can see the hearts of Houston Astros fans at Minute Maid Park after Jorge Soler’s huge three-run homer in Game 6 on Tuesday.
The goal was simple for the Houston Astros entering Tuesday night, win and force a World Series Game 7. To make things better for them, the final two games of the Fall Classic emanate from Minute Maid Park in Houston. A riled up group of Astros fans will certainly help their team.
Atlanta Braves outfielder Jorge Soler did his part in officially silencing the crowd with a 446-foot, three-run homer in the top of the third inning. You’ve seen the original video, but take a look at this on-field clip.

Jorge Soler silences Astros fans at Minute Maid Park with three-run homer
You can pinpoint the exact moment the hearts of Astros fans break once Soler’s bat connects with Luis Garcia’s pitch.
Garcia looked to be in good shape, despite allowing a single to Ozzie Albies to start the inning. He forced Travis d’Arnaud to flyout and Dansby Swanson to lineout. But a five pitch walk to Eddie Rosario forced the Astros to visit the mound. That was when he surrendered the huge home run to Soler.
It is still early in the game, but the Braves get a decent cushion early on in Game 6.
