Dick Selma, who was fined $500 for his blasts against the umpires after losing the previous night's game, drew another defeat when Donn Clendenon hit a two-run homer for the Mets in the eighth inning to beat the Phillies, 5-4. The Phillies broke a 1-1 tie in the fourth when Tim McCarver singled and Larry Hisle homered. A double by Tony Taylor, a wild pitch and a sacrifice fly by Don Money added a run in the fifth. The Mets, held to two hits by Chris Short, rallied for two runs in the sixth, the first scoring on a single by Ken Singleton, a double by Tommie Agee and single by Ken Harrelson. After Cleon Jones walked to load the bases, Donn Clendenon rolled into a double play as Agee crossed the plate.
