Ted Sizemore started the Cardinals' scoring with a two-run homer in the first inning and Bake McBride wrapped up an 11-2 victory over the Cubs with a two-run drive in the eighth. After Sizemore's smash with Lou Brock on base, a walk to Reggie Smith, singles by Ted Simmons and McBride and sacrifice flies by Ken Reitz and Mike Tyson added two runs to the Cards' count. Reitz and Tyson each had two-run singles later in the game, giving them three RBIs apiece. Billy Williams batted in both of the Cubs' runs with a single in the first.
