SAN DIEGO (AP) — Yu Darvish earned his first win of the season, pitching five shutout innings after

SAN DIEGO (AP) — Yu Darvish earned his first win of the season, pitching five shutout innings after coming off the injured list, and Manny Machado hit a three-run double as the San Diego Padres beat the Cincinnati Reds 6-4 on Tuesday night to halt a five-game slide.

Darvish (1-1) was in command throughout his outing, giving up three hits and no walks while striking out three.

“Obviously, you are in there trying to get us out of the funk, so that is the mentality — let’s stop the losing streak right here,” Darvish said through a translator. “Overall, the ball was coming out right. I had pretty good command for the most part.”

San Diego improved to 7-12 at home, including 2-9 at night.

“We will put it behind us and it will be a blip and something we won’t think about because we are going to go play good baseball,” Padres manager Mike Shildt said of the losing streak. “That was fantastic by Darvish. He was tremendous. ... We needed that pitching performance.”
