A two-out, two-run pinch-double by Bob Bailor in the bottom of the ninth inning lifted the Mets to a 3-2 triumph over the Padres. New York trailed, 2-1, when Ellis Valentine began the winning surge with a leadoff single.

Hubie Brooks struck out and Rusty Staub grounded out, but the rally was kept alive with a walk to pinch-hitter George Foster, who was replaced by pinch-runner Wally Backman. Bailor then doubled into the left field corner to score both runners. [The Sporting News]
