The Cardinals road to clinching the National League hit a road bump as their five game losing streak came to an end in their first game of a doubleheader with the Pirates.  Jack Lamabe was knocked around and he fell to 3-7.  He gave up five runs on six hits and one walk with one strikeout in just 2 1/3 innings.

Lou Brock had a huge game despite the loss.  He homered twice and drove in four runs while Dave Ricketts went two for four with a homerun, two runs and two RBIs.
