The Astros grabbed their 10th victory in their last 11 games Sun day when Phil Garner’s one-out single scored Dickie Thon in the top of the 12th inning to notch a 4-3 win over the Montreal Expos. “We’re playing now like we’re capable,” said Virdon. “I don’t think we ll win 10 out of 11 all the time. We are playing good base ball and our pitching is good. “I know we will be contenders as we go through the season.” The Astros are battling the Los Angeles Dodgers for first place in the West. Gamer said he was happy with his contribution to the win, and was beginning to feel at home with the Astros. “That RBI has been a long time coming,” said Gamer, who joined the Astros after he was traded last week from the Pittsburgh Pirates. “Everyone knows I did not want to leave Pittsburgh, but if you have to go somewhere, Houston is a good place to come to.” The Astros’ second baseman noted Sunday’s game was the final against an Eastern contender. “Now, we have to play all our games in the West. If you can t beat the guys beside you or in front of you, then you don’t de serve a pennant.” The Astros used four pitchers, with the win going to final reliever Frank LaCorte, who brought his record to 4-2. Elias Sosa, the last of five Mon treal pitchers, took the loss, bring ing his record to 1-2. Andre Dawson drove in all three Expos runs, with a two-run inside-the-park homer in the third, and another solo blast over the fence in the eighth, which tied the score 3-3.
