Christian Moore is quickly becoming a valuable asset for the Los Angeles Angels. After making several defensive highlights, he adds a highlight at the plate to his rookie season. 

The Angels were down one run in the bottom of the tenth inning with the game on the line. There was one out and a runner on second base. If Moore could move him around, the Angels could tie the game. 

Moore not only moved around the runner but also brought himself around and scored a walk-off home run to win the game for the Angels.

It wasn't the only home run Moore hit on Tuesday night as he added another home run to his season total two innings earlier to tie the game.

Moore was responsible for all three of the Angels' runs last night and has quickly risen to become a valuable player on the Angels' roster. 

On Monday night, he made a heads-up defensive play to add to his defensive highlight reel with the Angels, and now he has added to his offensive success. 

His dominant night at the plate actually made MLB history. According to OptaSTATS, Moore is the first player to ever hit a game-tying home run and walk-off home run while his team is trailing and to drive in all of his team's runs throughout the game. 

Moore earned recognition as the Angels' top prospect before being called up to the Majors, and his recent success in the field and at the plate makes it clear why. 

He now has three home runs and six RBIs on his stat line this season, with a .194 batting average through 36 games with the Angels.
