Tom Seaver gave up a run in the first inning on a triple by Vic Davalillo and single by Rennie Stennett, but then tightened up and pitched the Mets to a 4-1 victory to delay the Pirates' clinching of the East Division title. The Mets went ahead with three runs in the third on a walk to Cleon Jones, double by Jim Fregosi, triple by Duffy Dyer and sacrifice fly by Jim Beauchamp. Singles by Tommie Agee and Fregosi, around an infield out, added the final tally in the fourth.
