Don Wilson 1971 replay game 17 and 18



6-28-71

         R  H  E     

Atlanta  3  7  0
Houston 11  12 1

W - Wilson    L - Steve Barber


Home Runs - HOU Bob Watson 2, Jimmy Wynn 2  ATL - none 



What an easy win this was. The Astros pounded out 12 hits - 8 of them extra base hits and drew 8 walks. While he was far from alone, Bob Watson especially took a liking to what the Braves hurlers had to offer going 4 for 5 with a double, two home runs, 3 runs batted in, and 4 runs scored. Wilson's only had one bad inning was in the third when the Braves were able to string together some hits and get a couple of runs off him.

He's been getting great run support - that W-L record is ridiculous. I don't think that can be maintained, but his other stats are dead on.

May 22, 1971
vs.   San Francisco (Rich Robertson)

The Giants had a lead after Bobby Bonds took Wilson deep in the top of the third, but that's all the Giants would get off of Wilson. They had their chances to do more damage leaving nine men on base.

Meanwhile, the Astros offense took a while to get started, but they have another good game giving Wilson plenty of run support. Joe Morgan was a one man wrecking crew for the Astros.  He scored 2 runs and drove in 3 on the strength of two doubles and a single.

Don Wilson - May 17, 1971

May 17, 1971 vs. San Diego (Dave Roberts)

The Astros broke a scoreless tie with three runs in the bottom of the fifth. Joe Morgan's double scored Jesus Alou and Jack Hiatt. Cesar Cedeno followed with a single scoring Morgan.  The Astros added two more in the seventh on a Cedeno single that scored Roger Metzger and a Denis Menke double that scored Cedeno.

Cedeno and Morgan each had three hits, but the real story of this game was Wilson. He took a no-hitter into the eighth. He retired Ivan Murrell to start the inning, but Ed Spiezio broke it up with a double.  Leron Lee drove him in with a double to break up the shutout bid.

Don Wilson - May 12, 1971

May 12,1971 @ New York (Tom Seaver)

Pity the poor National League as The Don Wilson Total Domination Tour hit New York where Wilson out-pitched the great Tom Seaver.

Roger Metzger led off the game with a single and then scored on Jimmy Wynn's double. Seaver settled down after that and was indeed Tom Terrific until the later innings striking out 8 in the first six innings. Wilson matched Seaver's strike out total while shutting out the Mets through six.

The Astros picked up an unearned run in the top of the seventh when Don Hahn misplayed a Metzger fly ball allowing Doug Rader to score. Jimmy Wynn scored on an eighth inning Norm Miller double. Cesar Cedeno's single brought Miller home to give the Astros a 4-0 lead.

Fred Gladding relieved Wilson in the ninth and allowed an inherited runner to score. It would be the only tally for the Mets.

Although Seaver struck out 9 while walking only 1, the Astros did tag him for 10 hits.

The big surprise of the these first few games has been the Astros hitting. It really wasn't very good in real life, but it's been pretty good so far in the replay.

New York (Jerry Koosman) @ Houston

Wilson and Koosman hooked up for an old fashioned pitchers duel. Wilson pitched beautifully allowing only two baserunners to reach scoring position. Koosman was also terrific striking out 8 Astros in eight innings. 

The only score of the game came on a bad break for Koosman. In the bottom of the fifth Cesar Cedeno reached on a Bob Aspromonte error and then scored on a Jack Hiatt double. Koosman loses on an unearned run!

Philadelphia (Randy Lersh) @ Houston
 
The Phillies scored a first inning run off of Wilson, but that's all they would get off him. Meanwhile, Randy Lersh initially baffled the Astros striking out four of the first seven hitters he faced before the Astros figured him out. After scoring three in the third, they sent Lersh to the showers by scoring two more runs in the sixth.

Bob Watson had a another fine game in support of Wilson. He went 2 for 4 with 3 RBI. Roger Metzger went 3 for 5 including two doubles.

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.
