The Padres smacked two homers among their five hits and also took advantage of Cardinal pitchers' wildness to gain a 4-3 victory. The Cardinals, who collected 11 hits, scored twice in the first inning before Bobby Tolan started the Padres going with a homer in the third. Enzo Hernandez followed with a single and Nate Colbert walked. Rich Folkers, relieving Mike Thompson, passed Willie McCovey to load the bases. Johnny Grubb hit a sacrifice fly, scoring Hernandez.
