Blake Treinen gives up two solo home runs in the ninth to tie the score before Donovan Solano’s walk-off RBI single in the 10th gives the Padres a 6-5 win, the third time in the past 13 games the D…
The San Diego Padres’ Jurickson Profar, left, slides home to score ahead of the tag by Dodgers catcher Will Smith during the fourth inning on Tuesday night in San Diego. The Dodgers blew a five-run lead and lost, 6-5, in 10 innings. For the third time in their past 13 games, that wasn’t enough to get the Dodgers a victory. They scored five times in the first inning against the San Diego Padres on Tuesday night, then sat back and watched the lead disappear over the next eight innings.
The Padres have pushed their way back into the playoff picture with eight wins in their past nine games, whittling the Dodgers’ lead in the National League West to 5½ games, as small as it has been since June 1. The Dodgers’ deadline moves are certain to shake up their roster in the weeks ahead with the anticipated return of injured players. Two of the players likely to see their roles – or team – change had big hits in the big inning. Andy Pages drove in two runs with a single and Cavan Biggio bounced a fly ball off the foul pole down the right field line for a two-run home run.
