Reyes' long home run in 6th propels Padres over Marlins
SAN DIEGO (AP) -- Franmil Reyes hit a two-run homer that put San Diego ahead and the Padres got a fine effort from their bullpen Tuesday night in a 9-5 victory over the Miami Marlins.
Eric Hosmer had three hits and the Padres won a matchup of last-place teams, handing Miami its first loss this season in a game started by Dan Straily.
Reyes, called up May 14 from the minors, connected in the sixth off Straily (2-1) for the rookie's third homer in six games and second in two days at Petco Park. San Diego scored four in the eighth to break the game open, with pinch-hitter Christian Villanueva producing a two-run single.
Craig Stammen (3-0) won in relief of starter Tyson Ross. Adam Cimber worked a spotless seventh inning, Brad Hand pitched the eighth and Kirby Yates got the final three outs.
JT Riddle had an inside-the-park homer for the Marlins in the ninth.
Miami had won all five of Straily's starts this year. But he elevated a changeup to Reyes, and his drive soared into the second deck in left-center to give the Padres a 5-4 edge.
That was the end of the night for Straily, who allowed four earned runs and seven hits.
Ross, who won his previous two starts, got a quick hook from manager Andy Green. The right-hander was decent in his 5 1/3 innings, allowing three runs, six hits and a walk. He struck out four.
The Marlins chased Ross and scored three in the sixth to take their first lead of the game, 4-3.
J.T. Realmuto's triple scored Derek Dietrich after his leadoff single. Ross struck out Justin Bour on his 87th and final pitch. Stammen came on and Brian Anderson smacked a tying single. Two batters later, J.B. Shuck's double gave the Marlins a 4-3 advantage.
The Marlins pulled to 3-1 in the fourth when Bour, who opened the inning with a double for his second hit, scored on Riddle's double-play ball.
The Padres jumped on Straily with a three-run first. Travis Jankowski, Cory Spangenberg and Hosmer opened the game with three consecutive singles.
Hosmer's hit scored Jankowski, and when the ball skipped past center fielder Lewis Brinson for an error, Spangenberg came around as well. Hosmer scored on Raffy Lopez's single.
