Kyle Higashioka, Brandon Lockridge, and Donovan Solano each hit home runs in the ninth inning, leading the San Diego Padres to a decisive 5-0 victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks. The Diamondbacks are struggling, having lost five of their last six games, and are falling behind in the National League playoff race.

Despite having the highest-scoring offense this season, Arizona managed only two hits against a strong performance from Padres pitcher Randy Vásquez, who threw six scoreless innings. The Padres, having secured their playoff spot, are gearing up for the Wild Card Series.
