Larry Dierker allowed only five hits and did not issue any walks while pitching the Astros to a 4-0 victory over the Phillies. John Mayberry doubled to drive in one of the Astros' two runs in the second inning and then walked and scored on a single by Johnny Edwards and squeeze bunt by Dierker in the sixth. Denis Menke homered for the last run in the eighth.
