Nestor Cortes pitches a gem as Padres beat Dodgers again, take sole possession of first place
While the one hit Yu Darvish allowed was a home run, and he also hit a batter and walked one, a one-out single by Miguel Rojas in the sixth inning gave the Dodgers their only baserunner against Cortes. It was the first time in 92 career starts that Cortes made it through five perfect innings.
On a night when their chances to do viable damage were few and far between, the Dodgers had an opportunity they couldn't afford to waste in the top of the eighth inning. Hard-throwing Padres righty Mason Miller was on the mound.
