Steve Carlton boosted his record to 7-0 on a five-hitter as the Phillies edged the Padres, 2-1. The Phils' tallies came in the fifth inning on successive two-out singles by Manny Trillo and Bake McBride, an error by Padres center fielder Luis Salazar that enabled the runners to reach second and third, and a two-run single by Mike Schmidt.

The Padres missed tying the game in the ninth when Gene Richards, who had walked, was thrown out at the plate attempting to score on a double by Barry Evans. The relay went from left fielder Gary Matthews to third baseman Schmidt to catcher Bob Boone. [The Sporting News]
