The Cardinals, who scored five runs in one inning in the previous night's game and yet lost to the Reds, 7-6, scored five runs again in one frame and this time made them stand up for a 5-4 victory. However, three of their five runs were unearned as the result of an error by left fielder Bob Bailey, who dropped a fly ball by Bake McBride to open the third inning.
