Although collecting only four hits, the Dodgers were able to defeat the Padres, 4-2, with the aid of a two-run homer by Davey Lopes. The Padres, who had five hits, wasted a big opportunity in first the inning when they scored only once on two hits, two walks and a hit batsman. A double play pulled Doug Rau out of that trouble.

Ron Cey doubled for the Dodgers in the second and later scored on a wild pitch before Mike Ivie put the Padres ahead again with a homer in the fifth. Lopes hit his homer with Rau aboard in the Dodgers' half. The Dodgers then added an insurance tally in the seventh on a walk to Steve Yeager, Manny Mota's 108th career pinch-hit and a sacrifice fly by Bill Russell. [The Sporting News]
