George Stone, who had been shelved by shoulder trouble, made his first pitching appearance since last July 30 and allowed only two hits in seven innings as the Mets defeated the Padres, 7-2. Both hits off Stone came in the first inning and resulted in a run for the Padres.

Stone helped bat himself into the lead in the second. After John Milner and Jerry Grote singled, Stone also singled to drive in the tying run. Del Unser later doubled, scoring Grote and Stone. Mike Phillips knocked in two more runs with a triple in the fifth and Rusty Staub batted in a pair with a bases-loaded single in the sixth. Rick Baldwin, who finished the game for Stone, gave up the Padres' second run in the ninth while completing the combined four-hitter. [The Sporting News]
