(AP Photo/Derrick Tuskan) SAN DIEGO (AP) — Teoscar Hernández broke a sixth-inning tie with a three-run homer and Michael Conforto also went deep for the Los Angeles Dodgers, who beat the San Diego Padres 5-2 on Wednesday to take two of three games in the first series this season between the NL West rivals. The defending World Series champions bounced back from Tuesday night's 11-1 loss, a rout so bad for the pitching-strapped Dodgers that utilityman Kiké Hernández pitched the final 2 1/3 innings after starter Matt Sauer threw 111 pitches. Advertisement Rookie right-hander Ben Casparius got through four innings in his second start of the season, with just one rough patch. He allowed five straight Padres to reach in the second but they got just one run, thanks largely to center fielder Andy Pages throwing out Gavin Sheets at the plate on a 99 mph throw on the fly to catcher Will Smith. After allowing three straight singles, Casparius walked consecutive batters, including No. 9 hitter Martín Maldonado with the bases loaded. Fernando Tatis Jr. then flied out on the first pitch to end the threat. Conforto homered to left-center off Randy Vásquez with one out in the fifth, his fourth. Hernández hit a 420-foot shot to straightaway center field off Jeremiah Estrada with one out in the sixth, his 11th. Freddie Freeman was aboard on a single off Adrian Morejon (3-3), and Smith drew a walk from Estrada. Advertisement After pulling to 4-2 on Sheets' sacrifice fly in the sixth, the Padres blew another prime scoring chance when Michael Kopech walked the bases loaded with one out in the seventh. Anthony Banda came on and retired three-time batting champion Luis Arraez on a weak popup and Manny Machado on a grounder. The Dodgers, who rallied from a 2-1 deficit to eliminate San Diego in a National League Division Series last year, host the Padres next Monday through Thursday. Key moment Pages' throw home was on the first base side of the plate, but Smith caught it, wheeled around and tagged Sheets. Key stat Lou Trivino (2-0) got the win and Alex Vesia, the Dodgers' eighth pitcher, struck out the side in the ninth for his third save. Advertisement Up next Dodgers RHP Yoshinobu Yamamoto (6-4, 2.20 ERA) is scheduled to start Friday night in the opener of a three-game series at home against San Francisco. Padres RHP Stephen Kolek (3-1, 3.00) starts the opener of a three-game series at Arizona. ___ AP MLB:

Why the San Diego Padres' losing streak could spiral against the Blue Jays

Why the San Diego Padres' losing streak could spiral against the Blue Jays (Image Source: Getty Images) The San Diego Padres have hit their first significant rough patch of the 2025 season, dropping four consecutive games and falling to third place in the competitive National League West. Despite maintaining a respectable 27-19 overall record, alarm bells are ringing as the team heads into Wednesday night's matchup against the Toronto Blue Jays at Rogers Centre with mounting concerns on both sides of the ball. Bullpen falters while starters struggle to go deep The San Diego Padres' pitching team, once a strong point, has let in many runs recently. The team's pitchers have shown a poor 4.91 ERA in their last four games, which is a big drop from how they began the season. As Yu Darvish and Joe Musgrove are both out with injuries, the team's pitching depth has reached its limit. When Randy Vasquez (3-3, 3.45 ERA) toes the rubber tonight, he'll be one of the few bright spots in a rotation that hasn't been able to work some innings. With the main pitchers taking extra work, the bullpen has felt more pressure, and some relievers are showing signs of exhaustion on the trip. Because Logan Gillaspie and Bryan Hoeing are injured, it has become more difficult for the manager to organise the bullpen. Fernando Tatis Jr. 's production can't offset team-wide offensive inconsistency While Fernando Tatis Jr. has maintained his productive pace with four home runs over the past ten games, the overall offensive output has been inconsistent. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Semua yang Perlu Anda Ketahui Tentang Limfoma Limfoma Pelajari Undo Luis Arraez, despite a .326 team on-base percentage that ranks seventh in the National League, hasn't provided the consistent contact hitting the San Diego Padres expected when acquiring him. The San Diego Padres have managed to outscore opponents by six runs over their last ten games, but the run distribution has been problematic. During the current four-game skid, the offence has gone cold in crucial situations, struggling particularly against left-handed pitching.
