Shaw Hits 2 home runs in Blue Jays Win
The home crowd had a good time watching the Houston Astros and Toronto Blue Jays get after it.

Travis Shaw was a major contributor to the 8-3 Toronto win over Houston. The Blue Jays first baseman was 2 for 4 with 2 home runs, while adding 5 RBI and scoring twice. Justin Miller got credit for the win, improving to 2-0. He allowed no runs on no hits in 1.1 innings.

Shaw had a game-changing home run in the bottom of the eighth. On a first pitch sinker from Lance McCullers Jr., he banged a grand slam home run to right, giving the Blue Jays a 7-3 lead. It was the 12th home run of the year for Shaw.

"We were able to get some things going offensively," said Shaw.

The last-place Blue Jays have a record of 22-26.
