Leading off in the ninth inning, Cito Gaston homered off Jim Brewer to give the Padres a 4-3 victory over the Dodgers. Brewer had just come into the game in relief of Claude Osteen, who was lifted for a pinch-hitter in the top half of ninth when the Dodgers tied the score at 3-3. Jim Lefebvre walked and Willie Crawford, taking over on the paths, counted on singles by Steve Garvey and Len Gabrielson, who batted for Osteen. [The Sporting News]
