San Diego snapped a six-game losing streak to the Dodgers

San Diego Padres beat the NL West-leading Los Angeles 8-3 Saturday night to snap a six-game losing streak to the Dodgers. Manny Machado homered into the second deck in the fourth inning and then hit a go-ahead, two-run single in the seven-run eighth inning.

The Dodgers’ problems were similar to the ones by the Padres on Friday night that helped Los Angeles rally for a 10-5 win.

As the Dodgers were leading 3-1, Yency Almonte (3-2) loaded the bases with one out and Caleb Ferguson came in to replace him. Juan Soto hit an RBI infield single and a throwing error by second baseman Kike Hernandez on the play brought in the tying run in the match.


Machado then singled and brought two more runs to get a 5-3 lead. The Padres had six singles and three walks while sending 12 batters to the plate in the eighth for their 8-3 win.
