A pinch-hit homer by John Tamargo in the bottom of the ninth inning gave the Giants a 4-2 triumph over the Padres. The score was 2-2 with two out when Willie McCovey stroked a pinch-single. Max Venable ran for the veteran slugger and scored ahead of Tamargo, who drove the ball into the lower right field stands.
