Elias Diaz homered, singled and scored twice to help the San Diego Padres complete a two-game sweep of the visiting San Francisco Giants with a 5-3 victory on Wednesday afternoon.

Fernando Tatis Jr. had three hits and scored a run in the leadoff spot, and Luis Arraez had two hits, a run scored and an RBI for the Padres, who won the series opener 7-4 on Tuesday.

Padres starter Michael King (4-1) allowed one run and three hits over 5 2/3 innings, striking out six and walking one.

Heliot Ramos and Mike Yastrzemski homered for San Francisco.

Giants starter Landen Roupp (2-2) allowed four runs and seven hits in 4 1/3 innings. He struck out four and walked three.

Gavin Sheets walked to lead off the second for the Padres, took second on a groundout and scored on a two-out single to right by Tyler Wade for a 1-0 lead.

Diaz, hitting in the No. 9 spot, led off the third with a high fly to the wall in left. A fan wearing a Giants shirt reached for the ball, but it caromed off his wrist and over the fence. The play was reviewed for fan interference, but the home run counted, giving San Diego a 2-0 lead.

Tatis, Arraez and Manny Machado delivered three straight one-out singles to right in the fifth to make it 3-0. San Diego eventually loaded the bases in the inning and scored again on a swinging bunt by Jose Iglesias to extend the lead to 4-0.

King retired 10 in a row before hitting No. 9 hitter Tyler Fitzgerald with a pitch with one out in the sixth. Yastrzemski then lined a single to center. Machado then snared a one-hopper from Willy Adames at third and threw to second for the force while laying on his back, but King couldn’t escape the inning as Jung Hoo Lee hit a hard grounder off the glove off Arraez at first, scoring a run to cut it to 4-1 and end King’s day.

Jeremiah Estrada entered and struck out Matt Chapman to end the inning.

Arraez tripled in a run in the sixth to extend the lead to 5-1.

Ramos hit a solo shot with one out in the seventh to trim it to 5-2, and Yastrzemski went deep in the eighth to make it 5-3.

Roberto Suarez pitched the ninth for his MLB-leading 12th save.

Ashley Barnes interview: ‘I wanted to get this club back where it belongs’

Ashley Barnes’ smile is infectious.Sat on the balcony at Burnley’s training ground, he is exactly where he wants to be — home.Nearly two years ago, the 35-year-old was standing on a different balcony at Burnley’s Town Hall, addressing thousands of supporters who adore him. His contract was up and he thought he was saying his final goodbyes. Winning the 2022-23 Championship title made it the perfect ending.Advertisement“I thought I’d never be back, certainly not in a playing role,” says the striker. “I knew I’d maybe come back one day on the coaching side, but I never thought I’d see myself put on the shirt again.”It looked further away than ever at the start of this season, his second with Norwich City. Frustrations with a complicated calf problem had seen the idea of retirement drift into his thoughts. His mind could […]

Jalen Brunson sends Knicks fans, celebrities into a frenzy with game-winning 3-pointer to eliminate Pistons

Getty Images The New York Knicks are moving on to the second round after they survived the Detroit Pistons, 116-113, in Game 6 on the strength of a Jalen Brunson game-winning 3-pointer with 4.3 seconds to play. After leading by as many as 15, and 12 in the fourth quarter, the Knicks saw themselves on the wrong side of a 19-point swing to go down seven with 2:35 to play. But Brunson just wouldn't let his team go down, scoring seven of New York's final 11 points to close the series.  That is just a nasty slam-on-the-brakes move to absolutely lose Ausar Thompson, an electric defender who gave Brunson fits in Game 5 and had snuffed out a Brunson isolation with a clean strip a minute earlier. That's how you win Clutch Player of the Year, as Brunson just did. There are […]

David Beckham at 50: Why ‘Goldenballs’ is closer than ever to the knighthood he craves

When you have David Beckham’s wealth, celebrity status and a social circle made up of Hollywood A-listers, why limit yourself to just one birthday bash?Beckham’s celebrations for his 50th — a series of events on both sides of the Atlantic — kicked off in March with a party at Cipriani, an Italian restaurant in Miami that is so exclusive they do not share the menu (or prices) online.AdvertisementLionel Messi was among the 100-plus guest list, along with Luis Suarez, Jordi Alba and Sergio Busquets — all players at the Inter Miami team that has Beckham at its forefront.Photographs showed Beckham looking rather diminutive beside NFL legend Tom Brady and former basketball star Shaquille O’Neal, towering over him at 6ft 4in and 7ft 1in respectively. Hollywood stars Justin Theroux and Fisher Stevens were also at the black-tie event, as well as […]

Explained: Aston Villa’s latest stadium expansion plans

Aston Villa’s long-term vision to build a 50,000-seat Villa Park has faced several complex issues.In April 2022, chief executive Christian Purslow announced plans to redevelop the ground, which was opened in 1897, across several phases.Even then, pre-Unai Emery and Champions League quarter-finals cachet, there was an appetite for expansion. Purslow outlined a project marking Villa Park’s first major redevelopment since the 2000-01 season, when a larger Trinity Road Stand was built.AdvertisementPlans progressed over the ensuing 18 months and a timeframe was put in place, with the intention of the ground being ready a year out from hosting European Championship fixtures in 2028. Increasing the number of seats centred on expanding the North Stand, with planning permission secured, ideas finalised and work set to begin at the end of the 2023-24 campaign.Yet the complexities lingered, exacerbated by Purslow’s departure.

Bruno Lage vs Eagle Football: The £6m lawsuit for the ‘job offer’ that never came

It was Manchester City chief executive Ferran Soriano who first noticed the similarities between the business of football and what Walt Disney started a century ago.“Disney uses its characters, such as Mickey Mouse, to produce audiovisual content, sell T-shirts and instigate theme parks,” he wrote in Goal: The Ball Doesn’t Go In By Chance in 2012. “Manchester United might not have had Mickey Mouse, but it did have David Beckham, who used to sell a whole lot of television programmes (football matches), T-shirts, and to turn Old Trafford into a lucrative theme park.”AdvertisementThis “Disneyfication” of football is the theory underpinning the multi-club ownership model that Soriano has implemented at City Football Group, the holding company that owns stakes in 13 clubs, most notably Manchester City.But a £6million ($8m) legal case filed at London’s Commercial Court in March has revealed that […]
