DENVER—Xander Bogaerts had a season-high three hits, Matt Waldron gave up one run in six innings, and the San Diego Padres beat the Colorado Rockies 5–2 on Wednesday night.

“Getting ahead was the name of my game today,” Waldron said. “[Catcher Kyle Higashioka] and I executed well, and the offense did what they do. It’s awesome. It was a fun win. Hopefully, we can keep it rolling.”
