Ron Reed, who was obtained from the Braves, made his first appearance in a Cardinal uniform and pitched seven innings to receive credit for a 4-2 victory over his former teammates. An error by Ron Fairly that led to a pair of unearned runs enabled the Braves to take a 2-1 lead against Reed in the fifth inning.
