Luis Arraez started a 10th-inning rally with his fourth hit of the day and Fernando Tatis Jr. followed with a tiebreaking double as the visiting San Diego Padres edged the Cincinnati Reds, 6-4 in 10 innings on Thursday afternoon.
Tatis doubled home automatic runner Luis Campusano against reliever Sam Moll (0-1), who also surrendered a sacrifice fly to Jake Cronenworth in the two-run 10th inning.
Jeremiah Estrada (1-0) pitched a scoreless eighth and struck out the side in the ninth for the win. Padres closer Robert Suarez remained perfect with his 14th save in as many chances.
In taking two of three games from the Reds, the Padres concluded their two-city, seven-game trip with a 5-2 mark.
The Reds lost their eighth straight series.
Arraez followed up his four-hit night Wednesday with four more hits Thursday for the Padres. Arraez became the fifth San Diego player ever with four hits in consecutive games.
The Padres got to Cincinnati starter Frankie Montas for a pair of runs in the opening inning when Manny Machado doubled to right with two outs, scoring Tatis and Jurickson Profar.
The Padres added two more runs in the second when they loaded the bases with none out. Kyle Higashioka scored David Peralta with a fielder's choice on a grounder to short. Arraez followed with a single that drove home Jackson Merrill for a 4-1 San Diego lead.
Montas settled down after the second, giving the Reds six innings with nine hits and four runs. It was the longest outing for the right-hander since also going six on May 7.
The Reds' Nick Martini snapped a 0-for-17 slump with a second-inning single and then tied the game 4-4 in sixth when he drilled a 95-mph fastball from Enyel De Los Santos into the seats in right with Spencer Steer aboard. Steer opened the inning with a walk off De Los Santos, who relieved San Diego starter Matt Waldron.
The Reds only managed single runs in the first and second innings against Waldron, as the knuckleballer scattered six hits, walked two and struck out seven. Jeimer Candelario had an RBI triple in the first and Jacob Hurtubise drove in a run in the second.
Waldron was aided by his defense, which threw out two Cincinnati runners at the plate.
