Fine Effort by Putnam Not Enough in 10-5 Cardinals Loss
The home crowd had a good time watching the St. Louis Cardinals and Houston Astros get after it.

The Houston Astros overcame a good performance by St. Louis center fielder Pat Putnam to knock off St. Louis, 10-5, at Astrodome 1965. Putnam went 2-3 with 2 home runs and a walk. He scored 3 runs and drove in 3. St. Louis falls to 1-2.

Zail Smith, who finished 4th in the NL in home runs with 33 last year, aided the Houston cause with a run-scoring single in the bottom of the second. For the game, the left fielder went 3 for 4 with 3 singles and a walk. He scored 2 runs.

"Feels good to get the job done," Smith said after the game.
