Seth Lugo (3-2) pitched six strong innings for the Padres, who have won 7 of 10 heading into a home weekend series against the rival Los Angeles Dodgers.
SAN DIEGO — Rookie Brett Sullivan hit his first home run and had his first four RBIs, and Juan Soto hit a three-run double to make up for a baserunning blunder that cost Xander Bogaerts a club-record on-base streak as the San Diego Padres beat the Cincinnati Reds 7-1 Wednesday to take two of three.
The 29-year-old Sullivan, catching a day game after a night game, hit a two-run double down the right field line with one out in the second and then drove a two-run homer to right with two outs in the fourth. His double, off Luis Cessa , snapped the Padres' 0-for-15 skid with runners in scoring position and brought in Jake Cronenworth and Ha-Seong Kim.
Soto cleared the bases with a two-out double into the right field corner with two outs in the sixth. He also walked three times to extend his big league lead to 31. He was erased on a double play in the third and then committed an embarrassing baserunning error in the fifth that cost Bogaerts a single.
Bogaerts had one more chance to extend his club-record on-base streak of 30 games to open a season but he struck out to end the eighth.
