Bob Gibson and Juan Eichelberger started the second game in St. Louis. Gibson was spoted to
an early 1-0 lead in the first inning when Lou Brock singled, stole second and then later scored on a Curt Flood sacrifice fly. The Padres tied the score in the 3rd when Gene Richards walked, stole second and scored on a Ruppert Jones basehit. The Friars took the lead in the sixth inning as Sixto Lezcano popped a solo homerun off a frustrated Bob Gibson. Terry Kennedy, the next batter, paid the price for Lezcano's success as Gibson buzzed a high hard one by TK's head. Kennedy was visibly upset and would exact his revenge later. The Cardinals tied the game in the bottom half of the inning. Kennedy led off the 9th inning in a 2-2 tie. Terry got hold of a hanging Gibson slider and crushed it deep into the right field bleachers to untie the game. As Kennedy ran around the bases, he wore a smile on his face and was mobbed in the dugout with his heroics. Gary Lucas came in the ninth to shutdown the Cardinals and earn his 2nd save of the season. Juan Eichelberger (1-2) achieved his first victory and Gibson (2-2) evens his record dispite a solid 2.91 ERA.
