The Padres were held to two hits but scored on an error by John Stearns to defeat the Mets, 1-0. In the second inning, Willie Montanez walked and went to third on a single by Jerry Mumphrey, who was out trying to stretch his hit. Gene Richards walked and was picked off first.

The Mets turned their attention to Montanez, who was caught in a rundown between third and home. Stearns then threw wild to second in an attempt to nail Richards and Montanez scored on the error. [The Sporting News]
