Charlie Puleo fired a four-hitter for his first major league complete game and Dave Kingman drove in four runs with a double and his 12th homer to lift the Mets to a 6-0 blanking of the Padres. Kingman doubled home the first two runs of the first inning and eventually scored on a wild pitch. He climaxed a three-run fifth with a two-run homer. [The Sporting News]
