. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Steve Arlin posted his fourth shutout of the season, but only his seventh victory, as the Padres defeated the Mets, 3-0. The Padres scored all their runs off Nolan Ryan in the first inning.

Enzo Hernandez led off with a single and, after the next two batters were retired, Nate Colbert and Leron Lee walked to load the bases. Ollie Brown singled, driving in two runs, and the third scored when Ken Singleton let Brown's hit skip past him. [The Sporting News]
