Dave Winfield and Hector Torres belted back-to-back homers in the second inning and Randy Jones took it from there to pitch the Padres to a 3-1 victory over the Dodgers. The loss, charged to Don Sutton, was the fourth in a row for the Dodgers, who scored their lone run in the sixth on singles by Ted Sizemore, Steve Garvey and Ron Cey. [The Sporting News]
