After giving up three singles for a run in the first inning, Dave Roberts allowed only one more hit the rest of the way while pitching the Padres to a 2-1 victory over the Pirates. A walk to Ollie Brown and singles by Ivan Murrell and Chris Cannizzaro produced the Padres' tying run in the second and the deciding run counted in the third, after two men were out, on singles by Cito Gaston, Nate Colbert and Brown.
