Tom Seaver, making his first start since July 7 and pitching his first complete game since June 1st, tossed his third shutout of the season as the Mets defeated the Cardinals, 3-0. The Met ace was in command all the way, giving up but four hits. The New Yorkers scored twice in the third frame when Ed Kranepool singled home two runs off Card starter Lynn McGlothen. Kranepool's blow followed a walk to Jerry Grote and singles by John Milner and Rusty Staub which loaded the bases. The Mets' other tally came in the seventh on a flamer by Milner. McGlothen suffered his fourth straight defeat.
