SAN DIEGO (AP) Wil Myers had three hits and drove in three runs, keying a six-run rally in the eighth inning that carried the San Diego Padres to a 7-3 victory against the Washington Nationals on Saturday night.

Myers, who homered in the first against Max Scherzer, tied it at three with a two-run double off Felipe Rivero that landed just in front of diving center fielder Michael Taylor. After Matt Kemp was intentionally walked to load the bases, Rivero fielded Brett Wallace's comebacker but bobbled it before throwing it wide of catcher Wilson Ramos for an error that allowed Jon Jay to score the go-ahead run.
