Andy Messersmith became the first 12-game winner in the N. L., snapping a five-game Dodger losing streak in the process, as he pitched Los Angeles past the Padres, 4-1. The Dodgers reached loser Rich Folkers for a pair of first-inning runs, driven home by Ron Cey, who also hit a bases-empty homer in the sixth. Messersmith lost the shutout in the seventh when San Diego managed its only run on singles by Gene Locklear, Dave Winfield and Randy Hundley. [The Sporting News]
