| The Reds exploded for five runs in the third inning and breezed to a 7-0 blanking of the Padres. Two-out walks to Junior Kennedy and Champ Summers touched off the Reds' big inning. George Foster followed with an RBI single and after a walk to Dan Driessen, Ray Knight delivered a two-run single. Rick Auerbach then capped the outburst with a two-run double. [The Sporting News] |
