Cardinals Spill Mets, 2-0
The St. Louis Cardinals had to overcome a good performance from New York pitcher Rick Jones to claim a 2-0 win at Shea Stadium 1979. Jones went 8 innings and allowed 2 runs. Jeff Little converted his 1st save in 3 tries. The win gives St. Louis a season record of 32-27.

St. Louis used a well-timed hit by Sixto Lezcano to capture the win. The third baseman socked a run-scoring double in the top of the sixth inning to put the Cardinals ahead, 2-0. Though it was his only hit in 4 at-bats, it was important.

"I just try to go out and give it 100 percent every game," Lezcano told a local reporter after the game. "That's my mantra, and like today, it will pay off more often than not."
