HOUSTON — The Houston
Astros have stepped out to their
longest winning streak of the year
with no small amount of help from
the erring New York Mets.
The Astros scored the game
winning run in a 3-2 victory Tues
day night on Mets’ pitcher Mike
Marshall’s wild pitch, and the
night before Houston built an ear
ly lead en route to a 6-1 win that
included three runs off three
Mets’ errors.
The wins extended Houston’s
streak to six games, keeping them
in first place of the West Division.
In the two games, the Mets
have committed five errors. Mar
shall’s wild pitches — he threw
two in the dirt to the final batter —
are a new problem to the team
which has committed 100 errors
this year.
The pitch that decided the
game was a screwball which dip
ped into the dirt and skipped past
catcher Alex Trevino.
“I had two open bases,’ xMar-
shall said. “So I was going to be
certain not to throw a pitch in the
middle of the plate. I snapped
down on one real hard and 1 pulled
it to break inside.”
Marshall, acquired recently by
the Mets, said his newness to the
club was a contributing factor.
“I’m a tough pitcher to learn to
catch. I’m certain that Alex will
learn to catch my screwball in the
dirt when he sees it for a while. ”
The wild pitch, which allowed
pinch runner Scott Loucks to
score from third base with two out
in the ninth inning, was Marshall’s
first this season. Before he faced
pinch hitter Harry Apillman, Mar
shall had pitched well.

DALLAS — The Dallas Cowboys front office phi
losophy and won-loss record seem to stay the same
year after year. But as the 1981 season opens in
Washington next Sunday, the Cowboys will unveil a
major change.
It has to do with their wardrobe.
For years the Cowboys have worn white jerseys at
home and, since most teams like to wear their col
ored jerseys on their home field, Dallas has also
wound up wearing white on the majority of their road
trips.
In recent seasons, however, Dallas has had to
more and more wear their blue jerseys on the road —
in some instances because the opposition thought
the Cowboys “blue jersey jinx” was something to
take advantage of and in some cases simply because
the home team wanted to wear white.
Club president and general manager Tex
Schramm said he thought the Cowboys' old blue
jerseys looked somewhat drab. So he directed a
change be made.
The Cowboys’ new look will debut in RFK Sta
dium on Sunday.
“It doesn’t have anything to do with a jinx,”’
Schramm said Tuesday. “The old jerseys just didn’t
look good. We are having to wear our dark jerseys on
the road more and more these days and if we are
going to wear them we want them to look good.
The jersey itself is a deep blue with silver numer
als lined in white. The pants are an almost reflective
silver. .And, in an NFL first, a player’s number is
sitched on the hips of the pants.
“With the numbers on the pants it will fes Montreal 4, Cin.
