Recording his first complete game in 37 starts, John Montefusco scattered eight hits in pitching the Giants to a 5-1 triumph over the Padres. The route-going performance was Montefusco's first since August 2, 1978, and the victory was his first since July 29, 1979. Darrell Evans homered and Larry Herndon hit a triple and double to lead the Giants attack. [The Sporting News]
