New York shuts down Astros. tving plavoff series
United Press International
HOUSTON — The New York Mets, shut out in Game 1 of the National League Championship Series, rebounded in Game 2 last night with the kind of diverse attack that enabled them to win 108 games during the regular season.
Combining offense, defense and pitching, the Mets gave Houston something to ponder on the off-day trip to Shea Stadium, scoring a 5-1 victory over the Astros and tying the NLCS at one game anew.
Wally Backman delivered two key singles, and left-hander Bobby Ojeda frustrated Houston with a 10-hit com-
nlete game.
"We knew we had to win, basically." Ojeda said. "We were a little nervous. But when we broke the ice, you could feel a sigh of relief.
"You could just feel a very positive momentum shift to us."
Backman ignited a two-run fourth inning and singled home one of three runs in the fifth and dissapointed a crowd of 44,391.
Ojeda stranded nine runners for the victory.
"We had enough hits, but we didn't get them at the right time." Houston Manager Hal Lanier said. "You also have to give credit to their pitcher Ojeda."
Rafael Santana started a double play and kept the Astros from developing a comeback in the ninth.
Gary Carter doubled home one run and Keith Hernandez tripled home two more for the Mets.
"We made some big plays at crucial times." Oteda said.
Nolan Ryan once again showed that his 93 mph balltout doesn't scare New York much. Ryan, who fell to 0-3 against the Mets this season, retired the first 10 batters but was hit hard over the next $1^{3}$ innings and took the loss.
"He threw the ball well velocity-weise," Lanier said. "He didn't get the ball where he wanted to."
When the Astros did finally produce a key hit, Phil Garner's RBI single in the seventh, it proved way too late.
"I thought Bobby Ojeda pitched a very gutty game," said New York Manager Davey Johnson.
Game 3 is scheduled tomorrow in Shea Stadium, with Houston's Bob Knepper opposing the Mets' Ron Darling.
The difference in team attack could scarcely have been more pronounced. The first seven Met hits all contributed to a run. Meanwhile, the Astros carefully developed an almost attack. In just about every inning, they almost scored.
The pattern of Game 1 — won 1-0 by Houston — persisted three innings into Game 2. The Astros failed to produce a clutch hit and the Mets failed to hit, period.
Ryan retired all nine batters, including Len Dykstra, who once again led off the game by bunting.
In the second inning, Houston was unable for the fourth time in the series to deliver a runner from third with less than two out.
With one out, Kevin Bass doubled and went to third when Cruz singled off Ojeda's glove. Ojeda then fielded Alan Ashby's checked-swing bouncer and tagged out Bass trying to score.
one out in the third, it marked the first time in the series anyone in the top three spots for Houston hit safely. Hatcher, however, was doubled off first on a short pop to the outfield.
When Billy Hatcher singled with
The Mets finally scored in the fourth, collecting two runs on three hits. Backman and Hernandez singled, and Carter lined a double off the right field wall for one run. Darryl Strawberry then lofted a sacrifice fly for a 2-10 lead.
The Astros responded with their now-familiar routine of coming close. Garner walked and, one out later, Bass singled to third. However, Jose Cruz struck out and Alan Ashby grounded out.

Sports writer
For Kansas and Iowa State, the Big Eight Conference season begins tomorrow. But this match has turned into more than just another conference opener because the winning team will record its best start since 1981
"For us, the Iowa State game will be like the Super Bowl," offensive guard Steve Nave said recently. "The glory of victory is always short-lived. We have a streak going now and we have to keep that going."
Both teams are 3:1 after three consecutive victories. They also have many similarities on offense and defense
