WEB GEMS- Top 1st: Felix Millan robbed Ken Griffey of a base hit.

Rusty Staub had 2 base hits as the New York Mets defeated the Cincinnati Reds
by the score of 2 to 0 at Shea Stadium.

Cincinnati never recovered after New York took the lead in the 3rd inning
scoring a single run. The early run support proved sufficient for Tom
Seaver(3-3) and New York. That was all the run support Seaver required.
Cincinnati had a chance in the 9th but they came up short.

Bob Apodaca recorded the save, his 3rd. Jack Billingham(3-2) was hit with the

The New York Mets nipped the Cincinnati Reds in 10 innings 7 to 6 at Shea
Stadium in a hard fought contest.

times.

The win went to Bob Apodaca(1-2) who allowed 2 runs in 3 innings. Clay
Carroll(1-2) suffered the loss in relief. He gave up 1 run in 1 inning and
