Steve Henderson, who was the Mets' key acquisition in the trade of Tom Seaver to the Reds, drove in three runs, including a pair with a homer in the seventh inning, to play a major role in a 5-3 victory over the Pirates. Willie Stargell accounted for the Pirates' first two runs with a homer in the fourth inning. The Mets got one back with a circuit clout by Ed Kranepool in their half and tied the score when Henderson doubled to drive in Lenny Randle in the fifth.
