Roberto Clemente doubled in the fourth inning for the 3,000th hit of his major league career to start the Pirates off to a 5-0 victory over the Mets. After Clemente's historic hit, Richie Zisk walked, Manny Sanguillen singled and Jackie Hernandez tripled for three runs to end Jon Matlack's string of 28 successive innings of scoreless pitching against the Pirates. Two walks and an error by Wayne Garrett added the final pair in the sixth. Dock Ellis pitched the first six innings for the Pirates and Bob Johnson finished. Each allowed only one hit.
