Erupting for four runs in the eighth inning, the Padres broke a three-game losing streak with 7-6 triumph over the Pirates. The Padres trailed, 6-3, when they loaded the bases in the eighth on a single by Ruppert Jones and walks to Luis Salazar and Joe Lefebvre. After Kent Tekulve replaced Grant Jackson on the hill for the Bucs, pinch-hitter Broderick Perkins cleared the sacks with a double. Ozzie Smith then broke the 6-6 tie with a triple.
