Kingman lifts Mets in doubleheader win over Cubs
Dave Kingman delivered the key bat for New York, homering in the second game to seal a 4-0 lead as the Mets swept a doubleheader from Chicago.

Yogi Berra praised the win, the Mets’ first doubleheader at home since 1973, while Chicago’s Jim Marshall lauded his club’s play as they saw their seven game win streak end. Other NL results: Giants beat Dodgers 6-3 in 13 innings. Braves 4-3 over Padres. Pirates 5-0 over Cardinals. Reds 5-3 over Astros in first game of a twin bill before a 7-6 loss. Philadelphia-Montreal postponed by cold.
