The San Diego Padres end an eight-game losing streak with a 5-2 win over the Los Angeles Dodgers, avoiding a four-game sweep by the back-to-back World Series champions. Manny Machado provides the key offensive moment, hitting a three-run home run. The Padres add additional run support as Jackson Merrill and Fernando Tatis Jr. each contribute RBI singles during the game. On the pitching side, JP Sears earns the win by holding the Dodgers to no runs over five innings, allowing just one hit while posting scoreless relief through that stretch. San Diego’s victory is its first since June 26 and marks the club’s second win in its last 13 games at Dodger Stadium. Overall, the result breaks the Padres’ longest skid since 2013 and gives the team a needed turnaround against a top opponent.
