Question:
Other projects were made for the occupation of parts of Brazil in 1579, following the death of Sebastian of Portugal at the Battle of Alcacer Quibir, and also in 1582 under Admiral Filippo di Piero Strozzi, cousin of Catherine de Medicis. During that period the crowns of Spain and Portugal were united under the same king, the Dutch attacked and captured Salvador de Bahia and the island of Fernando de Noronha, but a Portuguese-Spanish fleet very soon recovered those cities. In the 17th century, France again briefly established a colony in Brazil with the establishment of France Equinoxiale. On 21 September 1711, in the 11-day Battle of Rio de Janeiro, Rene Duguay-Trouin captured Rio de Janeiro, then believed impregnable, with twelve ships and 6,000 men, in spite of the defence consisting of seven ships of the line, five forts and 12,000 men; he held the governor for ransom. Investors in this venture doubled their money, and Duguay-Trouin earned a promotion to Lieutenant general de la Marine.

How many more ships did Rene Duguay-Trouin have than Rio de Janeiro?

question: Despite high expectations, 1975 Houston Astros season was among the Astros worst in franchise history. Their record of 6497 was far worse than even the expansion Colt .45s and would remain the worst record in franchise history until 2011 Houston Astros season. It was the worst record in baseball and manager Preston Gomez was fired late in the season and replaced by Bill Virdon. The Astros played .500 ball under Virdon in the last 34 games of the season. With Virdon as the manager the Astros improved greatly in 1976 finishing in third place with an 8082 record. A healthy Cesar Cedeno was a key reason for the Astros success in 1976. Bob Watson continued to show consistency and led the club with a .313 average and 102 RBI. Jose Cruz became Houstons everyday left fielder and hit .303 with 28 stolen bases. 1976 saw the end of Larry Dierkers playing career as an Astro, but before it was all over he would throw a no-hitter and win the 1,000th game in the Astrodome. The Astros finished in third place again in 1977 Houston Astros season with a record of 8181.
Answer this question: What years did the Astros finish in third place?
answer: 1976
