A homer by Joe Foy in the 10th inning for his fifth hit and fifth RBI of the game gave the Mets a 7-6 victory in the nightcap of a doubleheader after the Giants won the curtain-raiser, 5-3. The Mets took a 3-2 lead in the first game on a homer by Ken Singleton in the sixth inning, but the Giants came back with three runs in the seventh. Ron Hunt walked and scored the tying run when a single by Ken Henderson went through the legs of Tommie Agee in center field. Willie Mays, pinch-hitting, was handed an intentional pass. Dick Dietz singled to send the Giants ahead and Jim Ray Hart added a run with another single.

In the second game, Foy doubled in the second inning, hit a two-run homer in fourth, batted in a run with a single in the fifth and helped send the Mets ahead, 6-4, with another RBI single in the seventh. The Giants loaded the bases on three walks in the ninth and tied the score on a single by John Stephenson. Ron Taylor, who was Mets' loser in relief in the first game, was the winner of the second on Foy's homer in the 10th, while reverse fortunes prevailed for Don McMahon, who was the winner in the first game and the loser in the second.
