Cesar Cedeno, who broke out of a slump with a homer, double and single in the previous day's game, rapped four more hits in five trips, including another homer, to pace the Astros to a 7-6 victory over the Braves. Cedeno and Jesus Alou, who also had four hits, drove in three runs apiece. Hank Aaron and Orlando Cepeda smashed two-run homers for the Braves.
