Early wildness by Tom Griffin, who walked four batters in the first inning, helped the Giants achieve a 5-4 victory over the Padres. Griffin passed Marc Hill with the bases loaded to force in the Giants' first run before Rob Andrews doubled to make it 3-0. Jack Clark added a homer in the sixth. After Griffin's departure, the Giants scored what proved to be their deciding run off Rollie Fingers in the eighth on singles by Willie McCovey and Hill and an infield out by Andrews, scoring pinch-runner Derrel Thomas.
