With no chance for a play at the plate, the Mets had to settle for a double play in the 10th inning while Rennie Stennett scored the run that gave the Pirates a 2-1 victory. The Pirates counted initially on singles by Al Oliver and Bill Robinson and an infield out by Dave Parker in the fourth. The Mets, who had been held scoreless for 24 innings, broke their drouth in the ninth when Joe Torre was hit by a pitch with the bases loaded.
