The Padres hit four homers in the ninth inning, but their power display came too late to prevent a 9-7 loss to the Dodgers. Wes Parker hit two doubles and a triple for the Dodgers, driving in three runs and scoring two. In the Padres' ninth Ivan Murrell, Ed Spiezio and Dave Campbell connected for bases-empty blows off Bill Singer.

After Steve Huntz walked with two out, Jose Pena relieved and was tagged for a homer by Cito Gaston before Nate Colbert struck out to end the game. The major league record for most circuit clouts in one inning is five. [The Sporting News]
