Better late than never.
Although the Astros managed to score two runs early, the home team bats then went limp through the seventh inning, threatening to waste a magnificent starting performance by Luis Garcia. But in the eighth inning, the Astros managed to put out a scorching Blue Jays fire to preserve a fragile lead, while the Astros offense blazed rout-of-control, making a close game look like a romp: final score 8-1.
The Astros scored first on a two-run double by Jake Meyers, which scored Jeremy Pena and David Hensley, who were hit by a pitch and walked, respectively.
