SAN DIEGO (AP) All-Star slugger Wil Myers hit his 20th home run and Adam Rosales also connected off Madison Bumgarner, powering the San Diego Padres to a 4-1 victory Friday night against the major league-leading San Francisco Giants.

Bumgarner (11-4), also an All-Star, didn't appear Tuesday in the Midsummer Classic at Petco Park because he pitched on Sunday, throwing a one-hitter and striking out 14 in a 4-0 victory against Arizona.

Andrew Cashner (4-7) won for the first time in four starts by holding the Giants to one run and four hits in six innings, striking out nine and walking none.

Brandon Maurer worked the ninth for his second save.

Brandon Belt was ejected for arguing with umpire Mike Estabrook after striking out in the ninth, and Giants manager Bruce Bochy also was tossed.
