Guilherme Santos — known simply as “Guilherme” — added a goal and two assists for Houston.
Ezequiel Ponce, on the counter-attack, played a first-touch cross from the right side to Bogusz for a tap-in goal in the 12th minute. Bogusz, in the 29th, outraced the defense to long ball-ahead played by Guilherme and rolled a first-touch shot inside the back post to make it 2-0.
Bogusz, who had a career-high 15 goals last season, has four goals in 16 appearances (15 starts) this season.
Guilherme beat goalkeeper Brad Stuver one on one to give Houston a three-goal lead in the 32nd minute.
Bond had his fourth shutout this season.
