Rollie Fingers logged his 11th and 12th saves as the Padres stretched their winning streak to four with a doubleheader sweep over the Giants, 12-8 and 9-8. Mike Ivie hit two doubles in the opener and three more in the nightcap for a total of six RBIs for the day as Alvin Dark made his debut as Padres' skipper. Ivie tied an N. L. record with five doubles in the twin bill. Dark used 20 players, including six pitchers, in the opener, and 21 players, including seven hurlers, in the second game.

The Padres scored seven runs in the seventh inning of the opener, negating a grand slam by rookie Jack Clark and two homers by Darrell Evans for the Giants. Gary Thomasson's two-run homer gave the Giants a 7-5 lead in the sixth inning of the second game, but the Padres put it away with a run in the seventh and three more in the eighth.
