The shutout pitching of Carl Morton, who scattered nine hits, was rewarded when the Expos scored in the 11th inning to edge the Cardinals, 1-0. Harry Parker worked first the nine frames in a duel with Morton before giving way to Tom Hilgendorf, who was beaten in the 11th when Ron Brand singled, Rusty Staub sacrificed and, after an intentional pass to Bob Bailey, Adolfo Phillips singled to score Brand.
