Wayne Simpson received credit for his first victory of the season when the Reds defeated the Padres, 4-2. Simpson, who was a 14-game winner last year before developing shoulder trouble, was lifted after walking the leadoff man in the seventh inning and Wayne Granger finished. Pete Rose, Ty Cline and Lee May rapped three hits apiece for the Reds. [The Sporting News]
