5/3/75 HOU @ SF
Bob Watson led the Astros in this one, going 3-4 with a 2B, HR (his 3rd) and 4 RBI. Dave Roberts went the distance for Houston, giving up only 4 hits and 2 walks in his first shutout of the year as the Astros knocked of the Giants 5-0. Only three runners for San Francisco made it as far as second base.
Watson’s home run came in the top of the first, giving Houston an early 1-0 lead. Cliff Johnson’s sac fly scored Greg Gross from third to make the score 2-0. Watson’s sac fly in the 8th added another run, and his single in the 9th scored the last 2.
John Montefusco took the loss for the Giants, dropping his record to 4-1. He gave up only 2 earned runs in 6-1/3 innings before leaving with pain in his right (throwing) wrist. It looks like he’ll be out for the next 10 days or so. This bumped his ERA up to 1.77.
As if throwing a shutout wasn’t enough, Roberts also hit his first triple of the season.
