Its nice to know that weve won two out of three


LOS ANGELES -- Beyond infielders Wil Myers and Yangervis Solarte, theres not a lot of experience in San Diegos lineup. As a result, Solarte prefers to lead by example.He hit a tiebreaking home run leading off the eighth inning to help the last-place Padres defeat the Los Angeles Dodgers 4-2 and snap a three-game skid on Friday night.Its something we talk about a lot, setting a good example so whoever comes up here for the first time, they see how we do things. What to do, what not to do, Solarte said. I was trying to get a hit to lead off the inning, first of all, but I was able to stay aggressive and make some good contact.The Dodgers lost for the third time in four games, but their lead in the NL West remained at two games over the San Francisco Giants, who lost to the Cubs.Brad Hand (4-3) got the victory, allowing one hit and striking out four in 1 2/3 innings of relief. Brandon Maurer pitched the ninth for his seventh save.They had opportunities but when Hand and (Ryan) Buchter were on the mound, I felt really good about that, Padres manager Andy Green said. Those are really good matchups for us all the way through.Solarte hit his career high-tying 14th homer on a 1-1 pitch from Adam Liberatore (2-2). Pinch-hitter Brett Wallace hit a bloop single over the third basemans head with two outs, scoring Alex Dickerson, who walked, for a 4-2 lead.Thats when a team takes life, when you finally take a lead and you give it right back, Green said. It was a good response by our guys.The Padres rallied twice, including in the sixth on Derek Norris two-run double that gave them a 2-1 lead. They were his first RBI since Aug. 2, a span of 15 games.Joc Pederson drove in both Dodgers runs. His RBI single gave them a 1-0 lead in the fourth and his 19th homer tied it 2-all in the sixth. Los Angeles had 13 hits and stranded 11 runners.Yasiel Puig rejoined the team after a monthlong demotion to the minors. He went 2 for 4, including a two-out single in the fifth.Puig grounded out with the bases loaded in the third. He singled and went to second on a throwing error in the seventh, but the Dodgers ended the inning with consecutive strikeouts.It was really good to see him back in the lineup, manager Dave Roberts said. His energy and focus was good. He ran hard.Padres starter Clayton Richard allowed one run and a season-high nine hits in five innings.Julio Urias made his 13th and possibly last start of the season for the Dodgers. The left-hander gave up three runs and two hits in 5 1/3 innings, struck out six and walked one. The club has instituted an innings restriction on the 20-year-old rookie.SLUMPING SEAGERDodgers SS Corey Seager was hitless in four at-bats, with a walk and a strikeout, extending his offensive slump to 0 for 19 -- his longest drought of the season.HELP ARRIVESThe Padres reinstated INF-OF Alexi Amarista from the 15-day DL and recalled RHP Leonel Campos from Triple-A El Paso.

BOSTON -- As if pitching at Fenway Park for the first time wasnt enough, Michael Fulmer also has the task of guiding the Detroit Tigers to an important sweep of the Boston Red Sox.The rookie Fulmer (9-2, 2.41 ERA) opposes the Red Sox for the first time in his career Wednesday as the Tigers look to take three straight against one of the majors premier teams.Its nice to know that weve won two out of three, but Id like to get a little greedy and win three out of three, Tigers manager Brad Ausmus said after Tuesdays 9-8 shootout victory.While Fulmer hasnt pitched at baseballs oldest ballpark, the 23-year-old has done some of his best work on the road this season, going 7-2 with a 2.80 ERA in 11 starts away from Comerica Park.However, his last start wasnt one of those instances, as Fulmer gave up a career-worst-tying four runs (four earned) on six hits with two walks and four strikeouts in five innings of a no-decision against the Chicago White Sox.That bumpy start followed a solid stretch in which Fulmer hadnt surrendered more than two runs in 10 consecutive starts.Fulmer has been a breath of fresh air for Detroit (53-48), which sits 5 1/2 games out of first place behind American League Central-leading Cleveland.The Tigers are also only 3 1/2 back in the AL wild-card chase. Boston (55-43) holds one of those two coveted spots, trailing Toronto by 1/2 a ggame for the top wild-card spot.ddddddddddddThe Red Sox turn to young southpaw Eduardo Rodriguez (2-4, 6.70 ERA) in desperate need of a strong performance as they try to reverse a stretch of four losses in five games.It is frustrating when you put up that many runs on the board and come away on the wrong side, Boston manager John Farrell said after his team scored nine runs in a loss.Fortunately for them, Rodriguez has turned in nothing but solid starts in his first two outings back from a stint with Triple-A Pawtucket to fix mechanical issues.Rodriguez followed up a one-run, seven-inning victory against the Yankees in New York July 16 with a hard-luck loss last Friday.He surrendered just two runs on six hits and a walk while striking out a season-high eight in 5 1/3 innings, but took the loss in a 2-1 setback against Minnesota.Rodriguez is 1-0 with a 1.29 ERA in one career start against the Tigers, striking out six and giving up one run on three hits and a walk over seven innings in Bostons 11-1 rout of Detroit last July 26.Nick Castellanos is 1-for-3 with a solo home run against Rodriguez. No current Tigers batter has more than one hit off of Rodriguez, with Mike Aviles and James McCann also getting knocks against him. ' ' '
