Bregman Hits 2 home runs in Astros Win
In a high-scoring game between Houston and Toronto, third baseman Alex Bregman was a difference-maker. The 33-year-old helped Houston grab the 10-8 win. He was 2 for 2 with 2 home runs and 2 walks, while scoring 3 and driving in 6. The winning pitcher was 27-year old right-handed pitcher Juan Vargas. He tossed 99 pitches over 6 innings, allowing 3 runs on 8 hits. Aaron Combs earned his 19th save in 24 chances.

The Blue Jays had been locked in a 3-3 tie with the Astros going into the bottom of the sixth inning. That changed quickly when the 35-year old catcher Omar Narvaez came to the plate. Narvaez hit a 2-run home run on a first pitch fastball from Toronto hurler Adrian Hernandez. It was Narvaez's 1st home run of the year.

"It all depends on which version of our team shows up," said Bregman. "When we put it all together, I think we're a great team."

The Houston winning streak has reached 3 games.
