Willie McCovey went 4-for-4, Darrell Evans homered and scored three times and Jack Clark collected two hits and drove in three runs as the Giants outlasted the Mets, 7-5. McCovey stroked two singles, two doubles, scored two runs and drove in one before being lifted for a pinch-runner in the seventh inning.
