Two-run homers by Cleon Jones and John Milner carried the Mets to a 4-3 victory over the Pirates. Jones hit his homer after a single by Bud Harrelson in the first inning. The Pirates tied the score in the third when Gene Clines was hit by a pitch, Al Oliver singled and Richie Zisk doubled. However in the fifth, Rusty Staub singled and Milner hit his homer to enable the Mets to brush off the Pirates' final run in the home half of the fifth on a single by Clines and double by Zisk.
