The Houston Astros bested the Toronto Blue Jays, 9-5, at Minute Maid Park. Jason Heyward was named player of the game. He went 3-5 with a home run and a double. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. James Pazos converted his 11th save in 13 tries. Even with the win, the Astros have a dismal 23-49 record.

Heyward had a game-changing home run in the bottom of the seventh. On a first pitch slider from Marcus Stroman, he banged a 2-run home run to right-center, giving the Astros a 5-3 lead. It was the 8th home run of the year for Heyward.

"We played hard and won," said Heyward. "Sometimes, baseball really is that easy.'
