Home runs by Gary Sánchez, Fernando Tatis Jr. and Manny Machado power Padres' sixth victory in seven games.
The Padres were able to survive Luis García continuing his first-half command struggles.
The teams play three games over the weekend, including a split doubleheader Saturday with the opener scheduled to begin at 10:05 a.m. PT and the night game at 4:05 p.m. PT. “Continue doing what we’re doing,” Machado said. “We’re just passing the baton and having quality at-bats. If we do that, the success will come.”
“Stamina-wise, I was all good today,” Darvish said. “It was good to go out there and be myself and pitch.” In their surge from a season-high eight games below .500, the Padres have hit .266 with 12 home runs over their past seven games.
