For the second night in a row, a St. Louis ace did not factor in a win. Drummond Santiago had a four-run lead going into the seventh, but allowed a game-tying three-run homer to Mark Bejma. But the New York bullpen failed in extra innings again, as Souza led off the 10^th with a home run. Luther Whitt then singled home another pair of runs before Al Giordano came on to pick up the save.

Alex Sugden leadoff with a home run for St. Louis, and Luther Whitt added another run to put them up 2-0. But New York wasn’t ready to give up. They scored five times against Boerner in the second, taking a 5-2 lead. But the St. Louis bats couldn’t be silenced. A two-run double by Don Alperman tied it in the fifth, and then St. Louis took the final lead on a Sugden single in the sixth. Three relievers—Blum, Daskin, and Giordano—combined on five scoreless innings of relief to seal St. Louis’s spot in the World Series.
