Toronto 1993 Tacks 4-0 Loss on Houston 1980
Al Leiter, who is tied for 8th in the AL in quality starts with 6, never let the Astros get in a groove. The left-hander used his bread and butter, his curveball, to pitch the Blue Jays to a win, 4-0. The Blue Jays improved their record to 28-27 by beating Houston 1980.

Toronto 1993 catcher Pat Borders contributed a timely at-bat in the bottom of the sixth. With two down, he hit a knuckleball to right field for a 2-run single. It was his 19th hit of the season and put the Blue Jays ahead, 4-0.

"The only difference is executing pitches and not executing pitches," said Leiter. "When you don't execute, you get beat. When you execute, you usually give your team a chance to win."
