Toronto Blue Jays starter Cade Povich pitched a strong game against the Houston Astros at Rogers Centre, leading the Blue Jays to victory, 4-3. The win belonged to Ricky Tiedemann in relief. His record improves to 4-8. Danny Coulombe took the loss for Houston. The win has Toronto at 32-57.

Toronto got a knockout punch from Jeferson Quero. The pinch hitter hammered a solo home run in the bottom of the ninth inning to win the game. It might've been his only hit, but it decided the outcome.

"You get some opportunities, you better take advantage of them," said Houston manager Steve Steele.
