Settling the issue quickly, the Mets scored four runs in the first inning and defeated the Padres, 7-2, for their 12th victory in the last 14 games. Wayne Garrett led off by drawing a walk and scored on singles by Joe Torre and Dave Kingman. After a single by Jerry Grote loaded the bases, Ed Kranepool singled, driving in two runs, and Bud Harrelson followed with a single to produce the fourth run of the frame. Kingman's RBI was his 30th of the season.
