Homers by Willie Montanez, Darrel Chaney and Jeff Burroughs helped the Braves defeat the Padres, 8-5, for their fourth straight victory. Montanez hit his homer with a man on base, while Chaney and Burroughs rapped solo shots. Chaney also accounted for a second RBI with a single. Phil Niekro, who struck out 11, had a shutout in the works until the ninth inning when the Padres erupted for all their runs on five singles and two walks.
