Six-run inning lifts Padres, sends Dodgers to brink

SAN DIEGO — David Peralta hit a two-run double and Fernando Tatis Jr. added a two-run home run in a six-run second inning as the San Diego Padres held on for a 6-5 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Tuesday in Game 3 of the National League Division Series.

Four relievers combined to throw four scoreless innings, with Robert Suarez picking up a four-out save, as the Padres took a 2-1 lead in the best-of-five series. San Diego moved one victory away from its second visit to the NL Championship Series in three seasons.
Game 4 is set for Wednesday at San Diego.
The Padres sent 10 batters to the plate in the second inning to overcome an early Dodgers lead and set up a similar scenario to the 2022 NLDS, where they lost Game 1 at Los Angeles, then won the next three.
“We’re showing up to play the best baseball we can, especially knowing the type of group that we’re facing,” Tatis said. “We’re just showing up and playing ball.”
