<p>Hurricane Harvey devastated the Houston area, but many from around the country donated their time, money, clothes and food to those who were in serious need.
<p>Houston Astros star George Springer, who hails from New Britain, Conn., put together a truck drive that his hometown was more than happy to help with.
<p>NESN&#8217;s Guerin Austin spoke with Springer before Friday&#8217;s game against the Boston Red Sox, and the star said he wasn&#8217;t surprised that the New England area came to bat for those who needed help, stating his hometown sent four trucks down to Houston packed with supplies.</p>
<p>To hear Springer discuss his relief efforts, check out the video above from &#8220;Red Sox Gameday Live,&#8221; presented by DCU.
