The Reds rallied for two runs in the ninth inning with the aid of an error by Don Kessinger and a mental boner by Glenn Beckert to defeat the Cubs, 3-2. Johnny Bench and Tony Perez led off with singles. When Ted Uhlaender bunted, Kessinger raced over to cover third but failed to hold the throw by Dan McGinn and Cesar Geronimo, running for Bench, scored the tying run.
