Gene Tenace belted a two-run homer in the 10th inning to lift the Padres to a 5-3 victory over the Giants in Roger Craig's final game as San Diego manager. With the score tied, 3-3, and one out in the 10th, Ozzie Smith walked and Tenace followed with his blast over the left field fence. [The Sporting News]
