SAN DIEGO (AP) — Yu Darvish gave up two hits in seven dominant innings to lead the San Diego Padres to a 4-0 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Sunday.

Fernando Tatis Jr., Jake Cronenworth and Xander Bogaerts hit solo home runs for the Padres, who have won five of the eight games against the Dodgers this season.

“They’ve been really unpredictable. Part of it is attacking some of our hitters’ weaknesses, going to their strengths,” Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said. “But I really think that they’ve just mixed and matched well and they’ve executed. Obviously they get up to play us, and they’ve played well.”

The Dodgers dropped two of the three games in the series after a seven-game winning streak.

The Padres have won four consecutive series.

“It means that we can play good baseball at the highest level,” Tatis said. “This series was as clean as possible for us.”
