Nolan Ryan struck out five batten
and ran his career record strikeout
total to 3,966.
Kevin McReynolds doubled in the
second inning and scored on Garry
Templeton's double, and Graig Net-
tles homered over the rightfield
fence in the ninth inning for San
Diego's other run.
"I tried to establish my curve and
changeup early in the game and go
with the fastball later," Ryan said.
“To be effective with your fastball,
you’ve got to get them thinking about
your curve."
After Gamer’s triple broke a 1-1
deadlock. Gamer also scored on the
play when Flannery's throw to third
base was wild and skidded into the
Padres dugout.
“I hit a slider in the gap." Gamer
said. “They were shading me toward
the line, and I just pulled it over
there."
San Diego Manager Dick Williams
said he expects to battle the Astros
right down to the wire for the division
title.
"They are a good ball club, par-
ticularly in this park," he said.
"They know how to play and win in
this park. They have good speed,
they are fundamentally sound, they
don't try to kill the ball. and they are
getting good starting pitching. ”

ATLANTA (AP) — The Atlanta
Braves voted 27-0 Wednesday to
authorize a baseball strike, should
the Major League Players Associa-
tion determines such action is
necessary.
“It was a show of support on our
side for the union and the executive
council," Braves' player represen-
tative Bruce Benedict said. "It is my
intention and my club's intention
that we do not strike. We have not
wanted one and never look forward
to one.
“But being forced into it as we are.
we have to take necessary’ precau-
tions," he added. "We’re prepared to
do something we'd be forced to do.
but not something we'd want to do."
The Braves became the 19th major
league team to authorize a strike.
Peters talked him out of it each time.
However, Peters didn't try this time,
in light of the Orioles’ poor showing
this year, the Sun said. ,
Baltimore remained in third place
in the American League East after
Wednesday’s loss, eight games
