Taking advantage of 12 walks and three errors, the Padres routed the Reds, 15-3. Three runs scored in the first inning when Reds' infielder Junior Kennedy threw wildly into left field on a double-play attempt with the bases full. Gene Tenace blasted a three-run homer in the sixth and doubled home two more markers in the seventh, when the Padres raked reliever Dave Tomlin for six runs on seven hits. [The Sporting News]
