SAN DIEGO (AP) — Fernando Tatis Jr. and Manny Machado hit leadoff homers and the San Diego Padres beat the Arizona Diamondbacks 4-3 on Thursday night to split a four-game series.
Machado led off the fifth inning with his 16th homer to give San Diego a 3-2 lead. Gavin Sheets then singled to chase Arizona starter Eduardo Rodriguez (3-6), and Xander Bogaerts doubled off reliever Juan Morillo to score Sheets.
Arizona cut it to 4-3 on Geraldo Perdomo’s RBI double in the seventh. Jeremiah Estrada pitched the eighth for San Diego, and Robert Suarez worked the ninth for his major league-leading 27th save. Adrian Morejon (7-3) was the winner.
After Arizona took a 2-0 lead in the third, Tatis led off the bottom of the inning with a homer to center, his 16th of the season and only the second off a left-hander. Jake Cronenworth tied it in the fourth with an RBI groundout.
Jake McCarthy robbed Tatis of a leadoff homer in the eighth with a leaping catch.
Jose Herrera and Corbin Carroll had consecutive sacrifice flies for Arizona in the third against Padres starter Randy Vásquez.
San Diego improved to 50-43, while Arizona fell to 46-48.
