The Padres, who fought off defeat in the 11th and 12th innings, scored on an error in the 13th to beat the Reds, 4-3. After the clubs exchanged ciphers for 10 innings, the Reds twice took the lead with two runs in the 11th and one in the 12th, but each time the Padres rallied to tie the score.

In the 13th, Dave Roberts doubled and, after an intentional pass to Leron Lee, Nate Colbert singled to load the bases. Cito Gaston bounced to third baseman Darrel Chaney, who threw home to force Roberts, but Johnny Bench's relay to Tony Perez in an attempted double play went through the Reds' first baseman and Lee scored on the error.
