Steve Mura tossed a six-hitter in recording his second complete game of the season as the Padres downed the Cubs, 4-1. The Padres scored twice in the second inning on a solo homer by Dave Edwards and an RBI single by Broderick Perkins. Juan Bonilla stroked a run-scoring single in the seventh and Edwards delivered a sacrifice fly in the eighth. The Cubs' Bill Buckner went hitless, snapping his hitting streak at 16 games.
