Astros Snatch Late Win
|
The Houston Astros grabbed a win, 4-2, over the Toronto Blue Jays at Minute Maid Park. Houston designated hitter Dominic Smith went 3 for 4 with a home run and 2 singles, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once. Houston reliever Brandon Brennan picked up the win to move to 2-7. Trevor Rosenthal suffered the loss. Earning the save was Tyler Duffey. He's now cashed in 14 of 20 save opportunities.
Smith had a game-changing home run in the bottom of the eighth. On a 2-2 slider from Alec Bettinger, he banged a 3-run home run to right, giving the Astros a 4-1 lead. It was the 8th home run of the year for Smith.
Smith called the win the result of "everyone being in sync."
The Astros go to 46-68 with the win.
