| An unearned run resulting from catcher's interference by Steve Yeager enabled the Cardinals to defeat the Dodgers, 1-0, in a duel between Lynn McGlothen and Andy Messersmith. With two out in the sixth inning, Yeager interfered with a swing by Lou Brock, who was awarded first base. Ted Sizemore singled, sending Brock to third, and Bake McBride followed with a single to drive in the lone run. McGlothen, after retiring Jim Wynn on a pop-up with the bases loaded in the seventh, was lifted with two men on base in the ninth and Al Hrabosky struck out Tom Paciorek to save the game.
