Durocher Leads Astros After Hat Trick Debut Win
Leo Durocher, 66, now manages the Houston Astros and won his first game 8-2 over Montreal after replacing Harry Walker. He praised his relaxed, happy club and said Cincinnati’s lead in the NL East is not safe. The day’s results stirred mixed standings across the league with Los Angeles, Chicago and New York posting wins and Houston remaining eight games back of the Reds. Durocher, who nearly went to Korea before the call, praised speed, defense, and power in a running, hustling team.
