Erupting for all their runs in the first inning, the Padres defeated the Astros, 4-1, behind the six-hit hurling of Dave Freisleben. Johnny Grubb led off by drawing a pass and scored on singles by Willie Davis and Jerry Turner. After Doug Rader walked to load the bases, Fred Kendall cleared the sacks with a double.
