Astros Come Back Late to Clip Blue Jays
The Houston Astros did just enough to secure a victory over the Toronto Blue Jays, 4-3, at Minute Maid Park. Nobody did more than pitcher Doug Jenkins. The win makes Houston 66-46.

Ted Valéncia electrified the crowd in the bottom of the ninth when he took Toronto pitcher Jorge Rivera deep. His solo home run sent the Astros home winners.

"The house was rockin'," said Valéncia.
