The Cardinals extended their winning streak to six games by defeating the Phillies, 3-2. Lou Brock singled, stole second and crossed the plate on a single by Julian Javier to start the Cards' scoring in the first inning. Carl Taylor homered in the third and then walked and counted what proved to be the winning run when Dick Allen tripled in the fifth. Byron Browne had a homer for the Phillies. [The Sporting News]
