NEWSPAPER GAME STORIES FOR 1975 National League Date: 5/10/1975

SAN DIEGO AT CHICAGO
Padres.......... 1 1 0 0 0 1 1 2 0 5 - 11 15 2
Cubs............ 0 1 3 0 0 2 0 0 0 0 - 6 12 0
Win:Greif(1-0) Loss:Zamora(0-1)
Homeruns- G.Locklear(2nd), R.Hundley(2nd), R.Monday(4th)

In a lop-sided win the San Diego Padres scored 5 runs in the 10th inning and
ripped the Chicago Cubs by a 11 to 6 count.

Both teams were tied at 6 runs apiece after nine innings. San Diego won it in
the 10th inning. The highlight belonged to Dave Winfield who disappointed
the partisan crowd when he tripled with all three runners coming home. San
Diego had 15 hits overall, while Chicago had 12.

The victory was credited to Bill Greif(1-0) who went 2 innings, allowing no
runs. The loss was charged to Oscar Zamora(0-1) in relief. He pitched 1
inning and surrendered 4 hits and 3 walks.

San Diego now has a record of 15-14. With the loss, Chicago has a record of
6-4 lately, 13-12 overall.

HOUSTON AT MONTREAL
Astros.......... 0 1 0 3 0 0 1 1 0 - 6 9 0
Expos........... 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 2 - 3 9 0
Win:Roberts(3-1) Loss:Fryman(0-5) Save:Granger(6th)
Homeruns- B.Watson-3(8th)

First baseman Bob Watson smacked 3 homeruns and had 5 RBI at Jarry Park as the
Houston Astros beat the Montreal Expos 6 to 3.

Watson was unconscious out there. While Montreal pitching was serving
softballs up there for him to hit, the Montreal fans were serving up some
hardball barbs when he entered the batter's box. But he just used it as fuel
for the fire. He smashed a bases-empty 'big-fly' in the 2nd inning, rifled a
three-run blast in the 4th inning, lined a single in the 6th inning and
lofted a solo-blast 'downtown' (his 8th of the season) in the 8th inning.
Montreal had a chance to come back in the 9th but they came up short.

Dave Roberts(3-1) got credit for the victory, pitching 8 and 1/3 innings and
allowing 3 runs. Roberts got help from Wayne Granger who earned his 6th save.
Woodie Fryman(0-5) was hit with the loss. He served up 3 homeruns in his 8
innings.

'It's almost like the ball was trying to hit my bat,' Watson said. 'Whenever I
would swing, the ball found the sweet spot.'

LOS ANGELES AT PITTSBURGH
Dodgers......... 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 2 0 - 3 8 3
Pirates......... 0 0 0 3 0 0 1 0 - 4 8 1

Right fielder Dave Parker had 2 base hits and 2 RBI as the Pittsburgh Pirates
beat the Los Angeles Dodgers by a score of 4 to 3.

Pittsburgh brought 3 runs across the plate in the 4th inning. Willie Stargell

the plate and reached on an error scoring the final run of the inning. Los

this one. Sometimes the breaks fall your way, sometimes they don't. Any one
of a dozen little things go different, and we come out on top.'
