The Pirates clinched at least a tie for their third straight Eastern Division title by defeating the Mets, 5-1. Bob Robertson provided the Pirates' big punch, smashing a homer with two men on base in the second inning. As result of the second-place Cubs' loss to the Expos, the Pirates' magic number was reduced to one.
