Houston left fielder Erick Valencia played a vital role in his team's 5-2 triumph over Toronto. He was 3-5 with a home run and a double. He scored 3 times for Houston. Erik Hamilton got credit for the win, improving to 13-12. He allowed 2 runs on 5 hits in 6 innings. Sean Little recorded the save, his 20th.

Houston used the timely hitting of Andy McArver to seize the win. The catcher stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the eighth inning to put the Astros on top, 4-2. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"I'm proud of the way our guys played today to come out with this win," McArver told the Houston Today.

The Astros go to 63-75, putting them third in the American League West Division.
