Extending their winning skein to four games, the Astros downed the Mets, 5-1, as Don Sutton became the first N.L. pitcher to be credited with seven victories. Houston broke a 1-1 tie in the third inning on a double by Terry Puhl and an RBI single by Tony Scott. Alan Ashby delivered a run-scoring single in the fourth and a sacrifice fly in the sixth. Ray Knight had his hitting streak halted at 16 games.
