Johnstone shines in rare start as Phillies topple Astros
Jay Johnstone started in left field for Philadelphia and went four for four with a run scored and an RBI as the Phillies beat Houston 8 5 in Houston. Despite his big night he remained on the bench late as pinch hitter Jose Cardenal delivered a go ahead run. Luzinski struggled with contact lenses and did not get a hit in 10 at bats as Philadelphia staggered in the four game set. The Astros tied the game late on Rob Watson RBI hits, but Gene Garber earned the win for Philadelphia while Joe Sambito took the loss. The win came amid Cincinnati beating Montreal and New York edging Atlanta in extras.
