SAN DIEGO—Luis Campusano and Ha-Seong Kim hit three-run home runs, and the San Diego Padres routed the San Francisco Giants 13–4 on Sunday for a split of the teams’ four-game series.

A passed ball by Giants catcher Patrick Bailey and Manny Machado’s RBI double contributed to a five-run San Diego first inning. Campusano followed with a drive into the first row of seats near the right-field foul pole off Daulton Jeffries (0–1), who made his first big-league start since 2022.
