Posting their fourth straight victory, the Cardinals erupted for three runs in the 10th inning and prevailed over the Mets, 7-4. The Cards loaded the bases on walks to Keith Hernandez, Ted Simmons and pinch-hitter George Hendrick. A sacrifice fly by Tony Scott drove in one run, a single by Ken Reitz accounted for another and a third tally crossed the plate on a wild pitch.
