Don Wilson - April 16, 1971

April 16 at Los Angeles (Sandy Vance)

Wilson struggled a bit early allowing single runs in the first and second. Bob Watson's two homer tied the game at 2-2 in the third. The Astros broke the tie with three runs in the fifth.  Two of the runs came on another Watson blast.  The Dodgers took advantage of a Jimmy Wynn error to put up two unearned in the bottom of the fifth and get to within a run of the Astros, but the visitors responded  with an insurance run in the eighth.
