By The Associated Press CHICAGO After five innings yesterday, the Houston Astros led 9-0. Five innings later, they were 10-9 losers to the Chicago Cubs. "It has got to be our biggest victory so far," said Dwight Smith, whose one-out, bases-loaded single in the 10th capped the first-place Cubs' comeback.

Reliever Dave Smith (3-4) walked Jerome Walton to start the 10th. Walton went to second on Ryne Sandberg's sacrifice and to third on Lloyd McClen-don's single. Mark Grace was walked to get to Smith, whose three RBI helped the Cubs to their third straight win. The Astros Francisco in the National League West, lost for the seventh time in eight games. Houston built its 9-0 lead on walks, Chicago errors and a grand slam by Rafael Ramirez.

The Cubs began their comeback in the sixth when a throwing error by pitcher Mark Portugal and Domingo Ramos' RBI single provided two runs. In the seventh, McClendon hit a two-run homer. Smith's RBI single chopped Houston's lead to 9-5. Chicago tied it in the eighth on three RBI singles and a sacrifice fly. Cardinals 4, Reds 2 ST.

LOUIS Joe Magrane got his NL-leading 18th victory, winning his seventh consecutive decision as St. Louis won for the 12th time in 16 games. All of the game's runs came in the sixth inning. Cincinnati rookie Jeff Richardson hit a two-run homer off Magrane in the top half before Terry Pendleton's two-run double keyed a four-run rally in the Cardinals' sixth. Magrane (18-7) has won 13 of his past 14 starts and tied Oakland's' Dave Stewart for most victories in the majors.

Today's pitching formrecords as starters Expos add Candelaria to bullpen for stretch drive it," Dombrowski said of Candelaria.

Candelaria, who will be playing for his fifth team, has appeared in three League Championship Series in 1975 and 1979 with the Pirates and in 1986 with the California Angeles. He pitched in the 1979 World Series against the Baltimore Orioles. Primarily a starter during his 14-year career, Candelaria will be used as a reliever to shore up a Montreal bullpen weakened by injuries. Expos Manager Buck Rodgers has been operating with a four-man bullpen, one short of the normal complement. "We've felt we needed help down there," Rodgers said.

"We think he's a good addition." Candelaria, who was with the Pirates from 1975-85, underwent arthroscopic surgery on his right knee and was disabled from May 6 until Aug. 19. By Dennis Georgatos Associated Press Writer SAN DIEGO John Candelaria, deemed expendable by New York Yankees owner George Steinbrenner, was traded yesterday by the Yankees to the Montreal Expos, who embraced the veteran lefthander as the answer to their bullpen problems. "He can help us down the stretch," said David Dombrowski, Montreal's vice president of player personnel. The Expos gave up a player to be named to acquire Candelaria.

"John Candelaria fits the description of a veteran pitcher," Dombrowski said. "He's been through it all. He's been on pennant winners. He's pitched in a World Series, and he's pitched well under those circumstances." Steinbrenner recently listed players he wanted to trade away. Candelaria, who joined the Yankees as a free agent before the 1988 season, was among them.

Candelaria, 35, who is 167-105 lifetime, had personal matters to attend to yesterday and was unavailable for comment. He will join his new team today in San Diego, where the Expos will be wrapping up a three-game series against the Padres. The Expos, who are in a four-way race for the National League East title, lost to the Padres, Monday night to fall three games behind the Chicago Cubs and a half game behind St. Louis. The New York Mets were in fourth, half a game behind Montreal.

"When you're trying to make a run for a pennant you need to come up with people who we feel can handle the pressures.

That brought up Andy Van Slyke, who hadn't fared well in the sixth spot. In eight previous games this season, Van Slyke was 5-for-28 (.179) with one home run and three RBI. This time, though, he lined a double into the right-field corner, and the Pirates led, 3-0. "That was encouraging," Leyland said of the first inning. "It was textbook baseball.

I liked the way we got those runs. It was good, smart baseball. We've been a little more creative recently." Drabek helped the Braves get their first two runs by walking Glavine with two outs in the third inning. McDowell followed with his first home run of the game. The Pirates, however, softened that blow by scoring twice in the bottom of the third after two outs and nobody on base.

Gary Redus, who was scratched from Monday night's game because of a strained muscle in his left side, said his side was still sore yesterday.

"I did it during batting practice Monday and I couldn't get it loose," he said. "It was like somebody stuck a knife in there." Bob Kipper, who's on the disabled list because of inflammation in his left elbow, threw a simulated game yesterday. Leyland said he hopes John Smiley can take his next start Friday against Cincinnati, "but I'm not going to push it. If there's any doubt, he won't pitch."
