Tom Seaver pitched the Mets to a 5-0 victory over the Giants and wound up his first shutout of the season by striking out the side in the ninth inning. The Mets began their scoring with a run in the second on a double by Ed Kranepool and single by Jerry Grote.

A two-base error by Glenn Adams on a drive by Rusty Staub, singles by John Milner and Mike Phillips and a double by Seaver produced two runs in the fourth. The final pair crossed the plate in the seventh on a single by Phillips, double by Grote, a sacrifice and infield out by Felix Millan. [The Sporting News]
