TEAM RISP- Houston: 2 for 8  Toronto: 3 for 7
 
Jose Altuve cracked a homer and had 3 RBI and Justin Verlander whiffed 11
batters as the Houston club outscored the Toronto ballclub 8 to 5.
 
Altuve had a big day with his bat.  He clubbed a solo home run in the 5th
inning, doubled in the 7th inning and lined a single which was good for two
runs in the 8th inning.  Toronto threatened in the 9th but Houston was able
to put down the rally.  
 
Verlander(4-0) was the winner allowing no runs in 7 innings. Matt
Shoemaker(2-5) was charged with the loss.  Despite losing, he struckout 8
Houston batters in 4 and 2/3 innings.  
 
Verlander was asked about his big strikeout performance, 'Well, it's a little
odd when you rack up these numbers on the road - instead of cheers and a
running tally in the stands, everything gets real still and quiet.  Just
strange - but it's nice to be able to take the crowd out of the game.'
