Willie Stargell smashed a pair of two-run homers to power the Pirates to a 5-3 victory over the Padres. Stargell hit his first homer of the game after a single by Al Oliver in the fourth inning. Richie Hebner singled and Gene Alley doubled for another run in the fifth before Roberto Clemente singled and Stargell homered again in the sixth. Leron Lee and Nate Colbert whacked back-to-back homers for the Padres in the ninth.
