The Padres were held to only one hit but profited from the wildness of Steve Stone, who walked five batters in the sixth inning, to defeat the Cubs, 2-1. Stone started his downfall by walking Dave Freisleben and Johnny Grubb on eight straight pitches. After a sacrifice by Tito Fuentes, Gene Locklear was handed an intentional pass to load the bases. Dave Winfield walked to force in the first run.

Willie McCovey popped up, but Mike Ivie drew Stone's fifth free ticket of the inning, forcing in the Padres' deciding tally. Grubb singled in the seventh for their only hit. Freisleben, in winning, ended his personal six-game losing streak. As an oddity of the game, the Cubs' run in the second also was forced home on a pass to Jerry Morales with the bases loaded.
