HOUSTON (AP) — Ernie Clement's two-run homer in the 10th inning lifted the Toronto Blue Jays to a 5-4 win over the Houston Astros Wednesday.
The game was tied at 3-all entering the 10th with the automatic runner on second when Clement sent the first pitch from Bennett Sousa (0-1) over left field to put the Blue Jays on top.
Yordan Alvarez's base hit to start Houston's 10th scored the automatic runner to get the Astros within 5-4, but Alvarez was thrown out trying to stretch the hit into a double.
The Astros challenged the call, which was upheld. Manager Joe Espada was then ejected for arguing the decision.
Chase Lee retired Jose Altuve and Daulton Varsho to end it and collect his first save.
