Gaylord Perry posted his 50th career shutout with a four-hitter, pitching the Padres to a 3-0 victory over the Astros. Oscar Gamble tied a Padres' club record with singles in his first two times at bat, giving him seven consecutive hits over three games, but grounded out on his third trip and failed to break the mark established by Cito Gaston in 1970.
