Astros Nip Pirates, 11-10
In the 11-10 Houston win over Pittsburgh, the impact of Julio Franco was substantial. Franco, who finished 5th in the NL in batting average with .316 in 1980, was 4 for 6 with 2 doubles and 2 singles. He scored 3 times and drove in 2. Houston pitcher Kevin Carr got the win, upping his record to 6-10. Mike Smithson got the loss. The 4th-place Astros have won 4 in a row.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the ninth. With one out, Franco hit a slider from Mike Smithson for a run-scoring single. The Astros, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

"We can always improve and get better, but we're feeling confident after that win," said Franco.
