t'caue iom u ii_ urt i i mliwim WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 26, 1981 Sports Met rookie Mookie homers NY past Astros ~iSp< United Press International A rookie outfielder and a veter an pitcher were the right com bination Tuesday night for the suddenly hot New York Mets. Mookie Wilson, a first-year out fielder, opened the eighth inning with his second homer of the sea son to lift the Mets to a 2-1 victory over the Houston Astros. Mike Marshall, a one-time Cy Young Award winner as a reliever, won his first game in the National League in more than four years with two perfect innings. “This is the biggest hit of my career anywhere,” the switch- hitting Wilson said of his blast into the left field bullpen, hit from the right side of the plate. Marshall, 1-0, last won an NL game on April 17, 1977, while with the Atlanta Braves. Released by the Minnesota Twins last June, Marshall won his last game May 28, 1980, when he beat the Chica go White Sox. Houston wasted a strong pitch ing performance by Nolan Ryan, who allowed only three hits over the first seven innings while strik ing out seven. Sambito relieved Ryan at the start of the eighth and was greeted by Wilson’s homer on the fifth pitch. Sambito had not allowed a run since May 14, a stretch of more than 19 innings in 17 games. Ryan allowed one unearned run in the fifth as New York tied the score on a walk to Dave Kingman, one of four given up by Ryan, an error by shortstop by Craig Reynolds and John Stearns’ RBI single.
