Bill Russell drove in two runs and collected three hits to lead the Dodgers to a 9-6 decision over the Padres. L. A. was ahead, 5-3, in the seventh when Russell broke the game open with a two-run double. Reggie Smith cracked an RBI single later in the inning. The three-run inning enabled the Dodgers to stave off a three-run Padre comeback in the eighth.
