Fred Norman pitched a five-hitter in the first game and Steve Arlin followed with a three-hitter in the second game as the Padres handed the Pirates their first double defeat of the season, 2-1 and 2-0. Norman's victory in the opener was the lefthander's first after six losses. Leron Lee homered for the Padres in the third inning and then doubled and scored the winning run on a single by Cito Gaston in the fifth.

In the nightcap, the Padres scored both their runs in the second inning on singles by Nate Colbert, Ollie Brown, Ed Spiezio and Fred Kendall. [The Sporting News]
