Veterans Stadium,Phila,Pa.-In game one of this three game series between the Phillies and Astros,Phils starter Steve Carlton was one out away from his 9th win of the season when with a man on first, Houston 1B Lee May deposited a 2-2 fastball into the visitors bullpen tying the game at 3 and forcing extra innings.In the extra frames,Phillies reliever Dick Selma sparkled,allowing just one hit in two and two thirds innings as the Phillies pulled out a 4-3 victory thanks to a Craig Robinson RBI single in the bottom of the 12th inning.Selma,who struggled a bit in the early going has now settled in nicely and has become the Phillies top fireman.

WP-Dick Selma(1-2)
