Padres beat Giants by playing long and short game; Rogers twins make history

SAN FRANCISCO — The Padres beat the Giants 4-2 thanks to one big hit and some little ones, as well as a sliding catch by Jurickson Profar that took away another big hit.

The decisive run scored in the seventh inning on a Manny Machado grounder that was mishandled by Giants reliever Tyler Rogers.

New Padres closer Taylor Rogers worked a scoreless ninth, giving the Padres their fourth consecutive victory and making the Rogers brothers the first set of twins to pitch in the same game for opposing teams and just the fifth to ever appear in the same major league game. Taylor earned the save while Tyler was charged with the loss.
