John Denny, the only Cardinals' starter over the .500 mark, brought his record to 6-5 by defeating the Phillies, 6-2, with the help of Al Hrabosky, who relieved in the eighth inning. The Cards, after taking a 2-1 lead against Jim Lonborg, decided the outcome with three runs in the seventh off Tug McGraw, who hurt himself with an error.
