A three-run homer by Jerry Martin carried the Phillies to a 3-2 victory over the Padres, whose runs came on consecutive round-trippers by Dave Winfield and George Hendrick in the sixth inning. Martin followed with his blow in the Phillies' half after singles by Davey Johnson and pinch-hitter Barry Foote.

The victory proved costly for the Phillies, who lost the services of Ted Sizemore for five weeks when the second baseman fractured two bones in his left hand. [The Sporting News]
