PHILADELPHIA — Jose Cruz,
Houston’s unheralded power
source, singled home Terry Puhl
with the tiebreaking run in the top of
a four-run 10th inning Wednesday
night, enabling the Astros to even
their National League playoff series
against Philadelphia at one game
apiece with a 7-4 victory over the

Phillies.
The best-of-five series switches
Friday afternoon to Houston, where
all remaining games will be played.
Philadelphia won four of the six
games between the teams during
the regular season in the As
trodome. Larry Christenson will
pitch for the Phils against knuck-
leballer Joe Niekro.
A playoff-record crowd of 65,476
watched Cruz drive in the go-ahead
run in the eighth inning to give
Houston a 3-2 lead and then bounce
a single through the right side of the
infield to deliver Puhl in the 10th for
a 4-3 lead.
Puhl led off the 10th with his third
hit of the game, a sharp single to
right, and was sacrificed to second by
Enos Cabell. Joe Morgan was inten
tionally walked and Cruz, a 33year-
old native of Arroyo, Puerto Rico,
delivered Puhl. Morgan took third
on the throw to the plate and Cruz
went to second when right fielder
Bake McBride’s throw eluded catch
er Bob Boone.
After Rafael Landestoy ran for
Morgan, Cesar Cedeno produced an
insurance run by hitting a fielder’s
choice grounder to Larry Bowa, who
foiled in an attempt to get Landestoy
at the plate. Kevin Saucier then re
placed Reed and allowed a two-run
triple to Dave Bergman.
The Philadelphia fans, knowing
only too well that the Phillies have
never won a postseason series and
must now win 2-of-3 in Houston, be
gan leaving by the thousands. One of
them, however, did take time to
throw what appeared to be a golf ball
toward the center of the mound.
Manny Trillo’s second sacrifice of the
game.
Maddox then lined a single to cen
ter to score Smith and took second on
the throw to the plate. After Bowa
received an intentional walk, the
runners were stranded when Bob
Boone struck out and pinch-hitter
Del Unser flied out to left.

Frank LaCorte, the fourth Hous

bases-loaded jam in the bottom of
the ninth but was taken out with
none out in the 10th after the first
two runners reached base.
The Phils tied the score 3-3 in the
eighth with Garry Maddox, quietly
making his case after a long dispute
with Manager Dallas Green, singling
in the tying run. Greg Luzinski led
off with a single and pinch-runner
Lonnie Smith moved to second on
top of the eighth, giving reliever Tug
McGraw his first rough outing since
the beginning of September. Mor

his aching left knee, lined a double to

with a single.
After its first seven batters went
out in order, Houston reached star
ter Dick Ruthven for a 1-0 lead in the
third. Reynolds walked on four
pitches and moved to second on
pitcher Nolan Ryan’s sacrifice. Puhl
then drove the first pitch into left
