Jake Meyers hit a three-run homer in Houston’s seven-run first inning, and the Astros beat Kevin Gausman and the Toronto Blue Jays 9-2 on Monday night.
HOUSTON —
José Abreu sparked Houston’s fast start with a two-run double. After Kyle Tucker walked and Jeremy Peña reached on catcher interference by Danny Jansen, Julks made it 4-0 with another two-run double.“They’ve been working hard at it — trying to get their strokes, find their strokes and keep their strokes,” Astros manager Dusty Baker said. “That was big. We haven’t had a first inning like that in a long time. We always talk about jumping them early and we finally did it.
The seven-run first was the biggest inning against Gausman in his career. It was the biggest first inning for Houston since August 2020. Astros Hall of Famer Craig Biggio sat near Houston’s dugout to watch his son, Cavan, play second base for Toronto. Cavan Biggio went 0 for 4 with four flyouts.
