George Springer's home run in Game 1 of the American League Division Series on Friday wasn't just a costly one for the Cleveland Indians.
Eddie Flores, an Astros fan, offered to buy everyone in his section a beer if Springer hit a lead-off home run in the fifth inning.
Flores delivered on his promise after the Astros outfielder drove a 3-2 cutter into the left-field stands, dropping more than $300 on beer for those sitting around him, according to Matt Young of the Houston Chronicle.

Flores continued to be generous when Jose Altuve immediately followed Springer's home run with one of his own.
"We bought beer for seven rows straight," Flores told ABC 13. "Then, it was back-to-back, so I bought another seven rows worth of beer."
In total, Flores spent about $500 on beer.
