After bowing to the Giants in the first game of a doubleheader, 8-2, the Padres came back to win the second game, 10-7, in 12 innings. Mike Caldwell, gaining his seventh victory of the season in the opener, restricted his former Padre teammates to six hits. Both runs off his deliveries were unearned when Garry Maddox dropped a fly by Nate Colbert in the sixth inning before Johnny Grubb hit a homer. Bobby Bonds and Ed Goodson each batted in three runs for the Giants. Bonds hit a homer, triple and single, while Goodson collected four singles.

In the nightcap, Willie McCovey powered the Padres into a 5-3 lead in the fifth inning with the 15th grand-slam homer of his career, tying Hank Aaron's N. L. record. However the Giants rallied to go ahead, 6-5, before a single by Matty Alou and homer by Bobby Tolan put the Padres in front again in the ninth. However, Bill Greif, who was the loser in the first game, took the mound in relief in the Giants' half and walked Gary Matthews with the bases loaded to force in the tying run. Jim Willoughby, the fifth of six pitchers used by the Giants, passed two batters in the 12th and Rich Morales followed with an infield hit to load the bases. With two out, the Giants made a pitching change that proved costly. Ron Bryant took over and walked Tolan to force in the tie-breaking run. Derrel Thomas then grounded to Steve Ontiveros and when the third baseman threw wildly, two more runs crossed the plate to clinch the victory for the Padres. [The Sporting News]
