Run-producing singles in the 10th by Tom Paciorek and Rick Auerbach, whose base hit scored two with two out, stood up as the Dodgers opened their series with the Cardinals with a 6-4 victory. Los Angeles had scored three times to take the lead in the second, with starting pitcher Andy Messersmith, who later left the game because of the flu, doubling home one of the runs.
