Padres get small-ball run in 10th, edge Giants 1-0

Jose Iglesias drove in the game’s only run with a 10th-inning sacrifice fly and the San Diego Padres spoiled a brilliant pitching effort by Logan Webb in a 1-0 victory over the host San Francisco Giants on Monday night.
While winning for just the second time in five extra-inning affairs this year, the Padres used fundamental baseball to plate the decisive tally. Tyler Wade sacrificed automatic runner Jake Cronenworth to third base, and Iglesias drove him home with a fly to medium-deep left field off Ryan Walker (1-3).
Robert Suarez (1-1), who pitched the final two innings, stranded a runner at third base in the bottom of the 10th by getting Jerar Encarnacion to line out to first baseman Luis Arraez for the final out.
Padres starter Stephen Kolek combined with four relievers on a five-hitter.
Making just his sixth career start, Kolek overcame three hits, two walks and two hit batsmen to log 5 2/3 scoreless innings. He struck out three.
Webb went unrewarded for eight shutout, walk-free innings in which he allowed the Padres just six hits. He struck out seven.
The Giants loaded the bases with no outs in the second inning before Kolek induced consecutive grounders to third baseman Iglesias. The first resulted in a force out at the plate before Iglesias elected to go around the horn for an inning-ending double play on the second.
San Francisco took advantage of three walks to load the bases again in the seventh, but Jeremiah Estrada, the Padres’ third pitcher, struck out Jung Hoo Lee to keep the game scoreless.
The Padres’ best chance to score against Webb came in the third when Arraez stroked a two-out double into the right field corner with Elias Diaz on first. But the lumbering catcher could only reach third on the hit, where he was stranded when Webb got Manny Machado to pop out.
Wearing No. 4 on the back of his uniform on a day when major-leaguers honored Lou Gehrig with a No. 4 patch on the front of the jersey, Arraez joined teammate Xander Bogaerts as the only players in the game with an extra-base hit, each with a double.
Adrian Morejon and Jason Adam also contributed to the Padres’ pitching effort, which resulted in just the Giants’ second loss in six extra-inning games this season.
