Broderick Perkins, extending his hitting streak to 11 games, delivered a single, double and homer and drove in all the runs as the Padres blanked the Mets, 3-0, behind the seven-hit pitching of Juan Eichelberger. The Padres scored two runs in the first inning on a single by Ozzie Smith, double by Gene Richards and two-run single by Perkins. Perkins unloaded a solo homer in the fourth. [The Sporting News]
