Blue Jays Win in Extras, 9-5
Craig Biggio did all he could to help his team prevail. In the end, though, it wasn't enough to keep the Houston Astros from losing the game, 9-5, to the Toronto Blue Jays in 10 innings at Minute Maid Park. Biggio went 4 for 6 with a home run and 3 singles. He scored 2 times. Toronto, now 63-47, holds down second place in the American League Eastern Division.

Toronto used a timely hit from Vladimir Guerrero Jr. to get the win. The pinch hitter stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the tenth inning to put the Blue Jays ahead, 6-5. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it made an impact.

"We're one win closer to our goal," Guerrero Jr. said in postgame remarks.
