Gary Sanchez hit two solo home runs Sunday and Blake Snell didn't allow an earned run in five innings as the San Diego Padres held on to defeating visiting Texas 5-3 and complete a three-game sweep of the Rangers.
The win was the Padres' 11th straight over the Rangers since 2018 -- setting a San Diego franchise record for consecutive wins against one team.
But Padres relievers Steven Wilson, Robert Suarez and Josh Hader held Texas scoreless over the last three innings. The Rangers loaded the bases with two outs in the ninth against Hader on a pair of walks sandwiching Nathaniel Lowe's double. But Hader retired Josh Jung on a fly to right to record his 25th save.San Diego improved to 8-4 over the last 12 games. Texas has gone 2-7 since winning six straight coming out of the All-Star break.
Texas tied the game in the top of the fourth. Ezequiel Duran walked, stole second and scored when Snell made a bad throw on Leody Taveras' infield single.
