Blue Jays Win at Houston, 5-2
The Toronto Blue Jays picked up a win at Minute Maid Park, knocking off the Houston Astros, 5-2. Starting pitcher Spencer Jones was a big reason why. Jones, now 1-1, was the winner. In 7 innings, he gave up 3 hits, while striking out 7, walking 0, and allowing 2 runs. Houston, now 5-16, continues its tough start.

Toronto needed the clutch hitting of Ruben Velasco to notch the win. The designated hitter hammered a 2-run home run in the top of the seventh inning to put the Blue Jays on top, 4-2. For the game, Velasco had 1 home run and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

Jones called winning a team effort. "It's not the same guy every time," he said. "It's the sum of the parts."
