Dick Dietz raced home from first base on a two-out double by Ken Henderson in the 10th inning to carry the Giants to a 3-2 victory over the Padres. Henderson also hit a double in the fourth and scored to put the Giants ahead, 2-1, but Nate Colbert homered to tie the game in Padres' half. In the 10th, Willie McCovey singled and was forced by Dietz before Henderson came through with his winning two-bagger. [The Sporting News]
