SAN DIEGO (AP) Rookie Alex Dickerson's two-out, three-run double in the eighth inning lifted the San Diego Padres past the Arizona Diamondbacks 9-8 on Thursday night.

Dickerson smacked Enrique Burgos' pitch into the gap in left-center field to snap the Padres' five-game losing streak.

Michael Bourn's soft single drove in pinch-hitter Rickie Weeks in the top of the eighth put Arizona ahead after it rallied from a three-run deficit.

Ryan Buchter (3-0), the Padres' fourth pitcher, got the win.

Brandon Maurer worked the ninth for his sixth save in 10 chances. He gave up an unearned run before stranding the tying and go-ahead runs.

Jake Barrett (1-1) was touched for three runs in the eighth to snap Arizona's four-game winning streak.
