HOUSTON -- George Springer singled home the winning run in the 11th inning to give the Houston Astros a 5-4 victory over the Seattle Mariners on Friday night. The touted rookie came through with an infield hit toward third after beginning the night 0 for 5 with four strikeouts in a game started by Seattle ace Felix Hernandez. Jose Altuve singled off Charlie Furbush (0-3) to open the 11th and Dexter Fowler reached on a bunt single. A sacrifice bunt by Carlos Corporan came next, and Altuve beat the throw to third to load bases for Springer. Anthony Bass (1-0) pitched two scoreless innings for the win. Marc Krauss had two hits and drove in two runs for Houston. Mike Zunino hit a two-run homer and Kyle Seager added a pair of RBIs for Seattle, which had a three-game winning streak snapped. Houston had trouble taking advantage of chances throughout the game and was 3 for 17 with runners in scoring position. Robinson Cano was initially ruled safe on a grounder with two outs in the 10th inning. But the play was challenged and overturned on replay to end the inning. The Astros tied it at 4 in the eighth when Alex Presley scored on a groundout by Jonathan Villar. Hernandez allowed five hits and three runs -- two earned -- with six strikeouts in five innings. Houston starter Brad Peacock gave up six hits and four runs while also striking out six in six innings. Michael Saunders started the sixth with a bunt single and Cano drew a one-out walk before Cory Hart singled to load the bases. Seagers two-run double came next to give Seattle a 4-3 lead. Springer had a chance to catch the ball in right field, but it bounced off his glove as he crashed into the fence near the bullpen. Springer was down on the ground as Fowler came over to retrieve the ball. Seager singled with no outs in the fifth before Zunino connected on his homer to the Crawford Boxes in left field to tie it at 2 with two outs. Hernandez plunked Jason Castro in the fifth before Krauss RBI single, on a ball that bounced right in front of the wall in right field, put Houston back on top 3-2. Krauss was out at second trying to stretch the hit into a double. Altuve had a bunt single to start Houstons third before a single by Fowler. The Astros went up 1-0 when Castro reached and Altuve scored on an error by centre fielder Abraham Almonte, who was sprinting toward the wall when the ball just eluded his glove. Krauss RBI single sent Fowler home to push the lead to 2-0.

Not only was the 37th-minute strike the difference, it was also the second-year midfielders first Major League Soccer goal. "I dont know if it changes my confidence," Hurtado said. "Its a weight off my shoulder getting my first MLS goal. I know the team has faith in me. The coach has faith in me." The Whitecaps (4-2-4) have won two straight and extended their unbeaten streak to four games while also winning for the first time on the road this season. "It was a super match of football," Vancouver coach Carl Robinson said. "It was two teams that wanted to play." Robinson praised the effort of the struggling Crew (3-4-3) under first-year coach Gregg Berhalter. "Columbus plays the right way," he said. "I told Gregg that before the match. Columbus at home playing an attacking style, theyre not getting the breaks at the moment, as youve seen the last couple of games." While Columbus had 12 shots, Vancouver goalkeeper David Ousted needed to make only two saves for his second shutout of the season. The Crew, who have not scored in 321 minutes, are 0-4-3 after winning its first three games. They were shutout for the third time in seven days after road losses to Sporting Kansas City and Houston. "The guys were running on fumes," Berhalter said. "You could see the difference, it was clear. (Vancouver) had a bunch of players running around that were fresh. We didnt have it physically." Hurtado, maaking in his fifth career start while appearing in his 22nd game, scored off a long ball by Ousted, who earned an assist.dddddddddddd "I just tried to put it on his chest and luckily he made some magic out it," Ousted said. After taking the pass from Ousted, Hurtado dribbled left between three Crew players then unleashed a rising shot from 21 yards that settled in the upper left corner past the outstretched arms of goalkeeper Steve Clark. "I chested it toward the goal," Hurtado said. "I got a little touch that set me up for the shot and kept my eye on the ball. I connected with it smoothly. "It hit my sweet spot right on my left foot. It felt good. When I saw it go past the keeper, I knew it was going under the crossbar." Columbus pushed for the equalizer at the onset of the second half only to see Ousted come up big, diving to his right to get a hand on a shot by Jimenez in the 48th minute. "The guys in front of me did really well, especially in the second half, blocking a lot of shots and clearing a lot of things," Ousted said. "It got hectic like it always does when you only have a one-goal lead. We handled it pretty well." Striker Omar Salgado, the Whitecaps first-ever draft pick in 2011, returned to the club after being loaned to the Charleston Battery (USL Pro) in March. He replaced Hurtado in the 74th minute for his first MLS game since October 2012, and nearly scored in the 88th minute. His breakaway chip shot over Clark rolled past the right post, however. The Whitecaps next play Wednesday at home against Toronto FC in the second leg of the Amway Canadian Championship semifinal. TFC won 2-1 on May 7.
