Cardinals Win, 9-4, at Atlanta
St. Louis and Atlanta got after it at Atlanta-Fulton County Stadium 1974.

St. Louis catcher Bob Watson had 3 ribbies while helping his team defeat the Atlanta Braves, 9-4. Steve Carlton earned the win for St. Louis. He lasted 8 innings, allowing 4 runs on 6 hits, while striking out 5. With the win, he raised his record to 6-0.

St. Louis got the win thanks to a clutch hit from Billy E Smith. The shortstop stroked a 2-run double in the top of the eighth inning to put the Cardinals ahead, 4-1. Though it was his only hit in 5 at-bats, it had a major impact on the outcome.

"The name of the game is scoring runs," Watson said. "We did a good job of that today."

With the win, the Cardinals have a record of 17-19.
