Padres rally from six down vs. Brewers

Published Aug. 1, 2009 7:37 a.m. ET

On the same day San Diego dealt ace Jake Peavy to the Chicago White Sox, the Padres offense overcame the shortcomings of one of the starting pitchers they kept.

David Eckstein drove in three runs and the Padres put up season highs with 11 runs and 17 hits to come back from a six-run deficit and beat the Milwaukee Brewers 11-7 on Friday night to win their fourth straight game.

Peavy, the 2007 National League Cy Young Award winner, waived his no-trade clause to allow San Diego to acquire four pitchers from Chicago, just two months after Peavy vetoed a trade to the same White Sox club.
