Astros Fall 5–1 As Phils Regain Edge In Four Game Set
Houston manager Lyman Harris sent a player to do four men’s work but the Astros lost 5 to 1 to Philadelphia. Danny Coombs hit a homer off Alex Johnson to spark Houston’s offense, yet Philadelphias two earned runs and solid pitching by Dave Giusti overpowered the Astros. Rusty Staub and others collected eight hits, but the Phils built an early lead and with Farrell on the mound, Philadelphia held on for the win.
