The Cardinals spoiled Hoyt Wilhelm's 1,000th major league appearance when Jose Cardenal singled with the bases loaded in the ninth inning, capping a four-run rally, to beat the Braves, 6-5. Joe Torre homered with a man on base for the Cardinals in the second, but the Braves came back in their half with four runs, three counting on a round-tripper by Tony Gonzalez. Adding another run in the seventh, the Braves were ahead, 5-2, going into the ninth.
