Richie Hebner rapped three hits and drove in the tie-breaking run in the seventh inning to spark the Pirates to a 5-3 victory over the Padres. Hebner set up one run with a single in the fourth and doubled in the sixth when the Pirates counted twice to tie the score at 3-3.

In the next stanza, Dave Cash singled, took second on a passed ball and scored the deciding run on Hebner's single. The Pirates added an insurance run in the eighth when Manny Sanguillen singled and Al Oliver tripled. Ollie Brown accounted for the Padres' runs with a homer in the fourth. [The Sporting News]
