A pass to Ted Sizemore with the bases loaded and two out in the 11th inning handed the Cardinals a 4-3 victory over the Reds. Five singles gave the Reds their runs in the first inning, but Sizemore hit a double and single to figure in two tallies for the Cardinals before Lou Brock tied the score with a homer in the ninth.
