Clay Kirby struck out 13, setting a San Diego club record, and pitched the Padres to a 4-2 victory over the Mets with the support of homers by Ollie Brown and Nate Colbert. Kirby had a shaky beginning, giving up two runs on a round-tripper by Ed Kranepool in the first inning, but the Padres got one run back with doubles by Colbert and Ivan Murrell in the second. Brown's homer tied the score in the fourth and Colbert then provided the winning margin with a two-run smash in the fifth. [The Sporting News]
