Although Lou Brock failed to add to his stolen base total of 101, the Cardinals' fleet-footed outfielder provided a victory for his club's cause, driving in a run with a bases-loaded single in the ninth inning to defeat the Mets, 2-1. The Mets scored their run off Bob Gibson in the second inning on a double by John Milner and single by Wayne Garrett. The Cards caught up against Jon Matlack in the fourth. Ted Sizemore walked, took second after a long fly by Reggie Smith and scored on a double by Ted Simmons.
