Ed Acosta, acquired from Charleston (International) in the deal that sent Bob Miller to the Pirates, made his first major league start and pitched the Padres to a 2-0 victory over the Phillies. Barry Lersch, who started for the Phillies, was doomed to his ninth straight defeat when Nate Colbert homered in the second inning. The other run scored on a wild pitch by Lersch with the bases loaded in the fifth.
