Barry Foote's seventh-inning homer snapped a 3-3 tie and got the Expos started toward a 7-4 victory over the Padres. A triple by Tim Foli and single by Hal Breeden drove in two more runs in the inning, and Montreal tacked on their final run in the eighth on Ron Hunt's RBI single. The Expos jumped to a 3-0 lead in the second on two walks, a sacrifice, infield out and doubles by Foote and starting pitcher Dennis Blair.

But Willie McCovey's 18th homer, a three-run shot in the sixth, tied the score against reliever Don Carrithers, who came away the winner thanks to a seventh-inning rally and stout relief work by Chuck Taylor, who entered the game in the ninth with one Padre run home and the bases loaded. He retired three straight batters. [The Sporting News]
