Houston starter Micah Gaff put a stranglehold on the Toronto offense. The right-hander had complete command of his fastball in leading the Astros to a 3-0 win. Houston is now 53-65, Toronto 38-81.

The Astros got a big hit from designated hitter Jaylin Turks. In the bottom of the sixth, Turks pounded a solo home run to right. His 17th home run of the season put the Astros ahead, 2-0.

"Throwing strikes was the main thing," Gaff said.
