Julian Javier, who had batted in only seven runs previously this season, accounted for four RBIs with a sacrifice fly and a double to lead the Cardinals to a 6-3 victory over the Phillies. Joe Torre provided two of the Redbirds' runs with a homer. A triple by Jose Cardenal, an intentional pass to Dick Allen and an infield hit by Torre on which Cardenal held third loaded the bases for Javier's tie-breaking double in the eighth inning.
