Padres Rout Dodgers 11-1 Behind Machado Five RBI, Cease 11 Ks

News summary

The San Diego Padres dominated the Los Angeles Dodgers 11-1, fueled by Manny Machado's outstanding performance, including driving in five runs and hitting three singles. Machado's surge in June has raised his batting average to .325 with a .904 OPS, 10 home runs, and 39 RBIs in 66 games this season. Pitcher Dylan Cease ended his 11-start winless streak by throwing seven scoreless innings with 11 strikeouts, effectively shutting down the Dodgers' offense despite issuing five walks. The Dodgers, plagued by injuries with 14 pitchers on the injured list, resorted to a bullpen game where reliever Matt Sauer was hit hard, allowing nine runs on 13 hits across 4.2 innings, and utility player Kiké Hernández was forced to pitch the final innings. The Padres capitalized on the Dodgers' pitching struggles, scoring in five consecutive innings and giving their bullpen a rest. Key contributions also came from Luis Arraez, who scored four runs, and Jackson Merrill, who had an RBI triple, highlighting the Padres' offensive depth.
