Seth Lugo allowed three hits and came within an out of his first career complete game, Juan Soto homered twice and the San Diego Padres stayed alive in the NL wild-card race, beating the San Francisco Giants 4-0 on Tuesday night.
The teams are tied at 78-80, 4 1/2 games behind the Chicago Cubs for the final NL wild-card spot. They also are three games behind Cincinnati and four games in back of Miami.
It was exactly what manager Bob Melvin hoped for when the Padres signed Lugo in the offseason. Mostly a reliever through his career, Lugo signed with San Diego with the idea of joining the rotation. The 33-year-old Lugo pitched with runners on base in four innings, and retired 14 of 15 during one stretch. It marked the 17th time in 26 starts that Lugo has thrown 90 pitches or more.
Lugo got the first out of the ninth on a line drive to second base. Luis Matos walked before Joc Pederson reached on a fielder's choice. Thairo Estrada singled with two outs before Melvin replaced Lugo with All-Star closer Josh Hader, who retired Michael Conforto on a looking strikeout.
