The Astros exploded for seven runs in the third inning and defeated the Reds, 8-1. Starting the biggest scoring stanza against the Reds this season, Joaquin Andujar and Enos Cabell singled around a sacrifice to produce the first run. Walks to Jose Cruz and Willie Crawford loaded the bases. Joe Ferguson doubled for two runs, routing Tom Hume. Bob Watson greeted reliever Dale Murray with a two-run double and, one out later, Art Howe capped the outburst with a two-run homer.
