Houston arrives in Toronto after a successful 6-3 home stand where they would sandwich a tough loss against Seattle between a solid win against Arizona and a sweep of the Angels. The series against the Angels in particular would see Houston find its power stroke as the Astros womped them for 11, 10, and 6 runs in a three game sweep.
Yuli Gurriel would lead the way this week, bolstered by one of his hottest series in an Astros uniform against the Angels. He would go off on LA with an 8-for-14 line and an incredible 7 RBI in one game while launching three bombs.
