Randy Jones became the first 20-game winner in the Padres' seven-year history when the southpaw defeated Dodgers, 6-4. His record was 20-11 in a comeback from a 1974 mark of 8-22. Tito Fuentes provided the principal batting support for Jones with four hits. The Padres broke a 3-3 tie with a run in the seventh inning on a double by Fuentes, single by Hector Torres and infield out by Willie McCovey. [The Sporting News]
