Capping a four-run rally in the sixth inning, Wayne Garrett scored on an error to provide the Mets with the deciding tally in a 7-6 victory over the Pirates. Tommie Agee set a Mets' record for the most homers in one month, 11, to the tie score at 3-3 in the fifth inning. Al Oliver sent the Pirates ahead again with a circuit clout in the sixth.
