Astros Get Close Win Over Blue Jays, 7-6
The Houston Astros stopped the Toronto Blue Jays, 7-6, at Rogers Centre. The Astros got a big game from Yainer Diaz, who was 3-4 with a home run and a double, while scoring 2 runs. Matthew Boyd picked up the win in relief for Houston, while Rowan Wick took the loss. Houston is now 45-42, while Toronto is 38-51.

Houston used a timely hit from Alex Bregman to get the win. The third baseman stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the eighth inning to put the Astros ahead, 6-5. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it made an impact.

"Winning never gets dull," said Diaz.
