SEATTLE -- When Edinson Volquez is at his best, its more than just his fastball and change-up that he can consistently throw for strikes. Volquezs curveball has to be effective and it was on Tuesday night. "Thats as good a hook as hes had all year," San Diego manager Bud Black said. "When (Volquez) is on its the three-pitch mix in the strike zone. I thought today the curveball really came into play and was really effective." Volquez pitched into the eighth inning in his longest outing of the season, Jedd Gyorko and Alexi Amarista each homered, and the San Diego Padres beat the Seattle Mariners 6-1 on Tuesday. The teams split the brief two-game set in Seattle, but will be right back at it on Wednesday in San Diego for two more games as the "natural rivals" conclude their season series. Gyorko hit a two-run shot in the fourth inning off Seattle starter Brandon Maurer, his sixth homer of the season. Amarista followed with a solo shot an inning later and the Padres knocked out Maurer (2-7) with three runs in the sixth as they won for just the second time in the past seven games. Gyorko set a Padres rookie record for homers in one month with his sixth in May. "Its always been that way. You get your timing right for that certain amount of time and you see the ball well," Gyorko said. "You get your hits, youre going to go through slumps at times. Its all about getting that timing right and putting a good swing." San Diego got a major momentum swing in the bottom of the fourth when Seattles Michael Morse was thrown out at home plate trying to score from first on Michael Saunders double. The relay was perfect from Amarista in centre to Everth Cabrera at shortstop and then to Yasmani Grandal, who had plenty of time to get the tag on Morse. As if getting cut down at the plate wasnt bad enough, Morse left the game after straining his right quadriceps on the play. But what Volquez did after Morse was thrown out was just as important. Saunders was left stranded at third and Volquez retired the next eight and 12 of 14 batters before leaving with two outs in the eighth inning. The only hit Volquez allowed after Saunders double was Kyle Seagers two-out single in the eighth. "I think Im a little bit different pitcher when my breaking ball is working because I know I can throw my breaking ball for a strike, behind in the count, ahead in the count," Volquez said. Volquez faced trouble in the second inning when Seattle loaded the bases with no outs. He got Nick Franklin to hit a grounder to first and Kendrys Morales was forced out at home. Jesus Sucre hit a sacrifice fly to score Morse with Seattles only run and Volquez got a fly out from Brendan Ryan to end the threat. Volquez gave up four hits, struck out five and walked three. "I feel my curveball was better than my change-up today," Volquez said. "Just wanted to be aggressive and keep the ball down. I think I only get in trouble that one inning, the second inning. After that I was good." Grandal returned from his 50-game suspension for San Diego and immediately was placed in the starting lineup. He got his first hit of the season when he dumped a sinking liner into left as part of the Padres three-run sixth. Seattle got lefty reliever Charlie Furbush up in the bullpen late and Maurer was forced to face Mark Kotsay and Will Venable, both lefties. Kotsay lined a single into left-centre to score Yonder Alonso and Grandal. Venable nearly cleared the bases with his drive that was caught at the wall by Endy Chavez. Furbush took over and immediately walked Cabrera. He got pinch-hitter Chris Denorfia to ground weakly to second, but Franklin -- making the first start of his career -- mishandled the routine ground ball allowing Gyorko to score the third run of the inning. Maurer was lifted after 5 2-3 innings, giving up nine hits and five earned runs. "I think I started throwing in a pattern, throwing the same pitches in the same counts," Maurer said. "They were sitting on them." Notes: Padres IF Logan Forsythe, on the 60-day disabled list with plantar fasciitis in his right foot, is expected to begin a rehab stint at Triple-A Tucson later this week. San Diego manager Bud Black said Forsythe would play second base, third base and shortstop. ... Seattle SS Brendan Ryan had his six-game hitting streak snapped. ... The Padres are 7-3 in their past 10 games in Seattle. Cheap Brooklyn Nets Jerseys .

Wholesale Brooklyn Nets Jerseys .C. -- Todd Fiddler scored a hat trick, including the overtime goal, as the Prince George Cougars survived an 8-7 win against the Kamloops Blazers in Western Hockey League play Sunday. SINGAPORE -- Nico Rosberg hung on for the narrowest Formula One victory for six years to win the Singapore Grand Prix on Sunday, celebrating his 200th career start in perfect style as he reclaimed the championship lead from his Mercedes teammate Lewis Hamilton.Rosberg held on to beat a fast-finishing Daniel Ricciardo of Red Bull by just 0.488 of a second at the Marina Bay street circuit while Hamilton took third place, narrowly in front of Ferraris Kimi Raikkonen.Rosbergs third successive win, and first in Singapore, took him back to the top of the drivers championship, eight points ahead of Hamilton with six races left.Ricciardo, having pitted for fresh tires with 14 laps left, sliced Rosbergs lead from 25 seconds to under a second but ultimately fell just short of overtaking the German. It was the closest F1 finish since the 2010 race at this venue when Fernando Alonso edged Sebastian Vettel by three tenths of a second.Daniel tried to pull one up on me with the pitstop at the end, we knew it was going to be tight but we got there so Im very happy, Rosberg said. The whole car was on the edge, it always is here in Singapore, so its very satisfying to finish like that.His team boss Toto Wolff perhaps summed it up best.We nearly peed our pants at the end, Wolff said. It was so close at the end, how it should be in Formula One; four really great cars, different strategies. I must take my hat off to Red Bull with their strategy by pitting him, we couldnt do that. Ricciardo was out of the blocks with amazing pace and it was really exciting at the end.Ricciardo was only 5.2 seconds behind with five laps to go and it looked likely he would catch Rosberg, but as the ultrasoft tires passed their peak, he was not quite able to make up the ground.We tried something different with strategy and got to within half a second, it was close, Ricciardo said. It was nice to be able to push to the last lap and put some pressure on him and give the crowd some hope.Vettel finished a creditable fifth after having started at the back of the grid due to a technical malfunction in qualifying.Red Bulls Max Verstappen started poorly from fourth on the grid and finished sixth, overtaking Alonso with seven laps to go. Force Indias Sergio Perez held off Daniil KKvyat to finish eighth while Kevin Magnussen was tenth to give Renault only its second points finish of the season.ddddddddddddRosberg got away well from pole position, beating Ricciardo in the race to the first corner.The safety car came out almost immediately due to a spectacular accident in the middle of the pack just after the start. Force Indias Nico Hulkenberg tried to get through a narrowing gap between the two Toro Rossos but clipped a tire on Carlos Sainz Jr.s car and speared heavily into the pitlane wall.After a couple of laps behind the safety car, the racing restarted at very short notice, almost catching out a safety marshall, who was picking up debris on the track when the field rounded the turn into the start-finish straight, and he was forced to sprint to safety.The finishing order of the top four was already in place by the end of lap one, but that disguised a thrilling finish due to some risky pit strategies.Hamilton, running fourth, came in for ultrasoft tires with 15 laps left, forcing Ferrari to hastily bring in third-placed Raikkonen the next lap, but they could not get the Finn back out quickly enough, and the move ultimately handed third to Hamilton.Ricciardo had been gaining ground on Rosberg, with both on the hardest compound tire, with the gap down to three seconds with 15 laps left. The Australian looked capable of catching the leader, but the team gambled on bringing him for ultrasofts, expecting that would force Rosberg to do the same.You need a pretty big speed advantage to pull (a passing move) off here, Ricciardo said. We did the right thing in the end. Staying on the same tire would not have given us any better chance.As soon as we did the pitstop, we thought Nico was going to come in so I pushed really hard on those tires, and in the end they were a little bit dead. At least it made it exciting.Mercedes had intended to respond to Ricciardos stop by bringing Rosberg in, but he was in the midst of backmarkers, and the team feared that a pitstop could bring him out behind Ricciardo, so they successfully gambled on keeping him out on worn tires and hoping he would hold on.
