Lefty Rich Folkers, holding the Expos scoreless in all but one frame, pitched the Padres to a 5-2 second-game triumph and a split of a doubleheader. Montreal, rallying for three runs in the eighth inning of the opener, won 4-1. Errors by Padre infielders Hector Torres and Fred Kendall with two out opened the door. A walk and pinch-single by Jose Morales followed to break a 1-1 tie, a second run crossing the plate when Kendall was jarred and lost the ball. Jim Lyttle then singled home the third run.

The Padres built a 4-0 lead in the second game, getting a pair in the first inning on RBI singles by Dick Sharon and Bobby Tolan. Ted Kubiak singled home two more runs in the fifth. Expos' runs came in the sixth on a single by Morales and double by Bob Bailey, who went to third on Sharon's outfield boot and scored as Pete Mackanin hit into a double play. Tolan drove home the final San Diego marker with a seventh-inning single. [The Sporting News]
