Nelson Cruz hits walk-off home run

Nelson Cruz went 2-for-3 including a walk-off two-run blast to lead the Mariners to a 3-1 victory over the Indians on Friday night. 

Fantasy Implications: Cruz is closing out the 2017 season on another power surge. His walk-off homer off of Cody Allen in the bottom of the ninth inning was his third opposite field long ball in as many games, and his 36th home run of the year. In addition, the veteran slugger continues to tack onto his American League RBI total, which now stands at 114. With eight games left to play, Cruz has the chance to hit reach the 40 homer mark for his fourth straight season.
