Clement’s Clutch Homer Seals Jays Win | MLB News

Ernie Clement delivered when it mattered most, crushing a two-run homer in the 10th to lift the Blue Jays to a 5-4 thriller over the Astros — securing two out of three in the series. With the score tied at 3, Clement blasted the first pitch he saw into left field, giving Toronto the lead. Houston got within one on a single by Yordan Alvarez — but he was thrown out trying to stretch it, sparking manager Joe Espada’s ejection. Chase Lee then locked it down, striking out Altuve and Varsho for his first save. Jesús Sánchez had tied it earlier in the sixth with his own two-run blast, making for a wild back-and-forth battle. The Jays head to Chicago for a makeup game, while the Astros get a day off before heading to San Diego. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
