Singles by pinch-hitters Johnny Briggs and Oscar Gamble helped the Phillies come from behind with two runs in the ninth inning to defeat the Padres, 4-3. With one out, Briggs singled to spark the rally. After Larry Hisle was hit by a pitch, Terry Harmon singled to score Larry Bowa, who ran for Briggs. After Mike Ryan struck out, Gamble's hit drove in the winning run.

The Phillies scored two runs in the first inning on a homer by Deron Johnson, but the Padres picked up a tally in the fourth when Cito Gaston and Ollie Brown doubled, and went ahead in the eighth when Brown singled and Nate Colbert hit for the circuit. [The Sporting News]
