Astros edge Reds on 3-run homer
United Press International
HOUSTON — To most ma-
or league teams, a two-game
(inning streak is nothing to get
jccited about. But to the Hous-
on Astros, who started the sea-
on with a 10-game losing
treak, it’s like a dream come
le.
The Astros defeated the Cin-
nati Reds 6-5 on the strength
ifpinch-hitter Harry Spilman’s
Iramatic two-out, three-run
lome run in the ninth inning.
Jose Cruz started the Astros’
ly with a lead-off double off
iliever Tom Hume, 0-1, and
|ne out later, Terry Buhl
alked. Alan Ashby hit into a
[ielder’s choice before Spilman,
linch-hitting for winner Bill
)awley, 2-0, hit a shot over the
ight center-field fence.
For Hume, it was a bad ex
perience.
1 Baltinn “j feel real bad about it all,”
knudhi lesaiei "] didn’t want to walk
lim (Spilman) and put the tying
dtohiti unon second for Moreno. So 1
lomeruii ^ decided to challenge him
erthefci ndtryto keep the ball down for
a ground ball. I got the pitch up
though and Harry is a good hit
ter and he hit it well.”
The Reds took an early 4-0
lead in the first inning with four
runs off Joe Niekro.
Cincinnati’s Cesar Cedeno
started the rally when he dou
bled and advanced to third on
an error by Niekro, which
allowed Eddie Milner to reach
base. Cedeno scored on catcher
John Mizerock’s passed ball and
Johnny Bench doubled home
Milner before Dan Driessen hit

Coming back to school: Remember
a couple of seasons ago when the Olsen
Sports File
Field public address system would ring
with the name “R-R-R-R-R-R-R-R-R-R-
R-R-R-Rodney Hodde?” Hodde, a for
mer Texas A&M baseball player who set
Texas A&M records for career RBIs, sea
son RBIs, career Southwest Conference
home runs and season doubles, was in
town over the weekend to visit friends
and to look for a place to live. After play
ing for a season with the Texas Rangers’
Class A farm club in Burlington, Iowa,
Hodde was cut the past June and went to
work for the Cactus Wellhead oil pro
ducts company in Lafayette, La., in July.
Hodde, who got married in November,
plans to return to school here in the sum
mer. Although he majored in animal sci
ence until leaving to play for the Burling
ton club, Hodde said he plans to go into
mechanical engineering starting this
summer and hopes to have his degree in
about two years. And Hodde says base
ball isn’t in his future: “The Rangers are
going to go with the guys they’ve put
their money into, so I don’t think there’s
a chance I’ll be playing any more. Texas
might have been the club I could have
played with, but that didn’t work out.”
Not so neat:Former Texas A&M
place-kicker Tony Franklin said after
Saturday’s varsity-alumni game that for
mer Philadelphia Eagles coach Dick Ver-
miel wasn’t as popular a guy as some
might have thought. “A lot of guys are
glad he’s gone,” Franklin said. “He had a
bad habit of burning people out too
quick. We’d start out and win our first
eight games and then struggle to win two
out of our last eight.”
