Don Wilson - April 23, 1971

April 23, 1971  vs Expos (Carl Morton)

Wilson pitched very well with just a minor hiccup in the fourth when he allowed two runs. Ron Hunt scored on a Rusty Staub double before Jim Fairey drove in Ron Fairly with the second run. As well as Wilson was pitching, Carl Morton was even better tossing eight shutout innings before being relieved by Mike Marshall. Marshall promptly melted down. Denis Menke led off with a double and then scored on Bob  Watson's triple. Cesar Cedeno's double brought home Bob Watson with the tying run and Doug Rader with the winning run.
