Marichal improved to 4-1, allowing just 1 run on 7 hits in 8 innings against the St. Louis Wizards. Stan Musial&#8217;s 8th inning double plated the only St. Louis run. Wizards starter Greg Maddux scattered 9 hits and struck out 9 to keep pace with Marichal. He hurt his own shot in the 5th inning when he misplayed a dribbler from Tim Raines. Rogers Hornsby followed with a triple, and scored on Oscar Charleston&#8217;s base hit, giving Houston their only two runs. With the 2-1 win, the Hoots improved to 13-9. The Wizards fell to 8-14 and have now lost 7 straight games. Marichal leads the entire Maelstrom with a 1.26 ERA in 5 starts. Bruce Sutter pitched a scoreless 9th to earn his 7th save. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/baseballmaelstrom.com\/POPsS2\/Scoresheets\/04-23-2023_HOU_STL.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Hoots @ Wizards - 4\/23\/23 \">Hoots @ Wizards &#8211; 4\/23\/23 <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Like a well-oiled machine, Houston Hoots starter Juan Marichal turned in another dominant performance.
