National League Roundup
Reds’ Johnson Uncomfortable
But So Are Opposing Pitchers
By MIKE RECHT
Associated Press Sports Writer
Alex Johnson, given another
chance to prove himself, still
doesn’t feel comfortable at the
plate. But he is making believ-
ers of National League pitchers,
who also are feeling uneasy
when he is hitting.
“I don’t feel natural at the
plate for the long ball,” moaned
the 25-year-old Cincinnati out-
fielder. “I'm just blooping
them.”
Despite his troubles, Johnson
managed a run-scoring single
and later a game-winning dou-
ble in the ninth inning Monday
night, giving the Reds a 3-2
uphill victory over the Houston
Astros.
Johnson’s three hits raised his
batting average to .333 and gave
him 15 runs batted in as a bona-
fide regular for the first time in
five major league tries.
Ed Charles, a 35-year-old vet-
eran given another chance,
clouted his second home run of
the game in the ninth inning,
lifting the New York Mets over
Pittsburgh 2-1.
Larry Jaster continued what
he does best — beat Los Angles
— by hurling St. Louis past the
Dodgers 2-1 with a two-hitter. In
