Don Wilson took a no-hitter into the 8th inning as the Houston Astros beat the
St. Louis Cardinals in 10 innings by a score of 1 to 0.
 
The score was knotted at zero after nine innings.  Houston came out on top in
the 10th inning.  Jesus Alou ripped a single.  Jim Wynn was next to bat, but
he was a strikeout victim.  Doug Rader dug into the batters box next, but he
struck out.  Denis Menke came up and he reached on an error.  Curt Blefary
came up to bat and ripped a base-hit giving Houston the victory and sending
the 24,961 home-town fans home happy.  Houston finished with 7 hits in the
victory.  
 
Wilson(9-20) was credited with the shutout, his first of the year.  The
right-handed Wilson had his no-hit bid broken up by Steve Carlton who doubled
with two outs in the 8th inning.  Carlton(19-12) was charged with the loss.
He was a hard-luck loser, pitching 9 and 2/3 innings and not allowing an
earned run.  
 
'He came out with good stuff,' Harry Walker said about Wilson. 'He threw the
ball good from the first pitch on.'
