In 18 innings the braves managed Only one run on 11 hits 10 of them singles. Troubles Are what bring out the Best in Turner said philosophically. I think in the Long run this will bring out the Best in us in other National league games the Chicago cubs blasted the Houston astros 11-5 the Cincinnati reds edged the St. Luis cardinals 2-1, the Philadelphia Phil lies blanked the san Francisco giants of and the Montreal expos beat the los an Geles dodgers 4-2. San Diego at new York was postponed because of cold weather. The pirates taking advantage of Atlanta s woes extended their winning Streak to 10 games longest in the major leagues this season. They had no mercy for their Trou bled colleagues. Mien they leave town i Hope they have Success. But when they re on the other Side if the Field you feel nothing at All for said Pitcher Jim Hooker who combined with Kent Tekulve for a six hitter inthe opener. Dave Parker whose two run triple was the winning blow in the second game agreed. I Don t think you can afford to show mercy in this game said Parker who had four hits in the twin Mil raising his batting average to .427 and lengthening his hitting Streak to 21 games Bot major league highs for the season. One of Atlanta s biggest problems has been a series of injuries that Nave depleted the Talent at the disposal of manager Dave Bristol. A shoulder injury to outfielder Gary Matthews a leg injury to first base Man Willie Montanez and a bruised muscle suffered by Ace Pitcher Andy Messersmith Are Only the most serious of the braves singles by Frank Taveras. Rennie Stennett and Phil Garner produced the pirates runs in the first game. In the second Parker s two run triple in the third inning was All that was needed. Cubs 11, astros s the Victory was the cubs sixth in a Row their longest Streak in two years. George Mitterwald and Steve Ontiveros drove in four runs apiece for Chicago. Mitterwald s three run Homer capped a five run four thinning that broke the game open. Beds 2, cards 1 reds starter Gary Nolan making his first appearance of the season after being sidelined since Spring training by a foot infection and Monona Derosis allowed just three hits in five innings before suffering muscle cramps. Pedro Borbon and rawly East Wick completed the Victory. Nolan who threw 49 pitches had not pitched since March 29 and was just Happy to make a contribution to the team which has been having problems. Phillies a giants 0 Steve Carlton blanked the giants on four hits and Greg Luzinski and Mike Schmidt hit homers for Philadelphia which reached the .500 Mark at 12-12. Giants Veteran Willie Mccovey was impressed by Carlton. He s one of the better pitchers in the league said Mccovey. I thought he had Good placement on his pitches. He does t overpower you anymore like he once did but he might be a better Pitcher because he has a better idea of what he wants to expos 4, dodgers i Warren Cromartie drove in the winning run in the seventh inning when his Long drive bounced off the Centerfield Wall hit Rick monday on the forehead then bounced Over the Wall.
