The Cardinals broke up a scoreless duel in the 10th inning when Mike Anderson singled with the bases loaded to beat the Expos, 1-0. With one away in the overtime frame, Roger Freed batted for winning pitcher Butch Metzger and singled. Rick Bosetti ran for Freed and scooted to third on a single by Lou Brock. The Expos elected to pass Garry Templeton to load the bases, but the move failed when Anderson stroked his single. [The Sporting News]
