Pat Dobson, who won a total of only 11 games with the Tigers in 1967, '68 and '69, posted his 14th victory of the season for the Padres by defeating the Dodgers, 2-1. Ollie Brown scored the Padres' first run in the second inning and drove in their other tally with a sacrifice fly in the third.

The Dodgers threatened in the ninth, scoring on an error by Jose Arcia, single by Willie Davis and sacrifice fly by Wes Parker, but Dobson bore down to retire Tom Haller on a a pop fly and Steve Garvey on a grounder. [The Sporting News]
