Padres cool off Mariners, stretch win streak to 6

Xander Bogaerts went 3-for-4 with three RBIs Tuesday night and Michael King fired six strong innings for his second straight win as the San Diego Padres stopped the visiting Seattle Mariners 4-1.

King (2-1) allowed four hits and a run, walking two and fanning five in San Diego's sixth straight win. Its high-leverage bullpen arms took care of matters from there with Mason Miller pitching the ninth for his fifth save in as many chances.

Bryan Woo (0-2) took the loss for Seattle, permitting eight hits and three runs over seven innings with a walk and three strikeouts. The result ended the Mariners' four-game winning streak.

The Padres rapped out 11 hits and continued their recent offensive surge. They have outscored opponents 40-15 during their streak, winning every game by at least three runs.

Seattle initiated scoring in the second. Randy Arozarena and Luke Raley singled before J.P. Crawford was plunked to fill the bases. Dominic Canzone cashed in Arozarena with a sacrifice fly to center.

That lead lasted until the third, when San Diego touched Woo for three runs. Ramon Laureano tripled with one out and rode home on a single by Fernando Tatis Jr. Jackson Merrill singled Tatis Jr. to third, then stole second before Bogaerts' single plated both runners.

The Padres capped the scoring in the eighth when Merrill doubled, advanced to third on Manny Machado's fly ball to deep left and trotted home on Bogaerts' third hit of the game.

Merrill also collected three hits for San Diego and Laureano finished with two. Arozarena was the only Mariner with two hits.

The result was just the Padres' fifth win in their last 19 matchups with the Mariners.
