Manny Trillo batted in three runs and scored one to play the leading role as the Cubs edged the Padres, 6-5. Rick Monday homered for the Cubs in the second inning and Trillo scored after hitting a single. The Padres came back with a matching pair in their half on a single by Willie McCovey and homer by Randy Hundley, but the Cubs broke away with three runs in the third.

Jose Cardenal doubled and counted on a single by Bill Madlock. After a single by Monday and pass to Andre Thornton loaded the bases, Trillo drove in two runs with a single. Trillo came up again with the sacks filled in the seventh and batted in what proved to be the winning run with an infield out. [The Sporting News]
