Hernandez scored on a Howard Johnson double. The score remained 1-0

attempt. Philly had the bases juiced with one out when the Mets brought
in Roger McDowell who got Johnny Callison and Ruben Amaro to send the
game into extra innings. In the bottom of the 13th, Johnny Briggs
singled and moved to 2nd on an error. A Doug Sisk wild pitch moved
