. . . where the 1970s live forever!

The Cubs stopped themselves on their six-game winning streak by committing three errors in the first inning to start the Padres off to an 8-6 victory. Ivan DeJesus booted two grounders and Steve Ontiveros made a wild throw to allow the Padres to score three unearned runs. The Padres' subsequent scoring included homers by George Hendrick and Gene Tenace, while the Cubs had round-trippers by Manny Trillo and Steve Swisher. [The Sporting News]
