SAN DIEGO — Pinch-hitter Donovan Solano singled past diving third baseman Kiké Hernández with the bases loaded and one out in the 10th inning and the San Diego Padres stunned the NL West-leading Los Angeles Dodgers 6-5 Tuesday night.

Solano’s hit thrilled a record crowd of 47,559 at Petco Park and gave the Padres their eighth win in 10 games since the All-Star break.

“Everybody here pushes, fights through the same way, trying to win it,” Solano said. “It’s big, against the Dodgers, first place in the division. This situation was one of the biggest situations I’ve ever been in.”

The Padres tied it in the ninth on home runs by Manny Machado, who connected on Blake Treinen’s first pitch, and a high-arcing shot to right with one out by rookie Jackson Merrill. Machado also homered off starter Tyler Glasnow in the second.

It was Machado’s 41st career multi-homer game.

UP NEXT

Dodgers LHP Clayton Kershaw (0-0, 4.50) is scheduled for his second start after making his season debut on Thursday. He’ll oppose Padres RHP Dylan Cease (10-8, 3.50), who threw his first career no-hitter and the second in San Diego history on Thursday at Washington.

Padres Load the Bases in the 10th

San Diego loaded the bases against Alex Vesia,(1-3) who’s from suburban Alpine, before Solano’s big hit against a drawn-in infield.

Solano, a right-handed hitter, was pinch-hitting for left-handed hitter Jake Cronenworth against the lefty Vesia.

“It’s an opportunity. I was a little surprised, but I was ready for any situation,” Solano said. “The manager makes the decision and I’m ready for that.”

Manager Mike Shildt said Cronenworth has had “a great year for us, one of our main guys, but the situation just presented itself. We’ve got a guy over there in Solano with a professional at-bat on display there.”

Shildt said Cronenworth “stood right beside me and cheered his tail off for Donny and he rewarded us with a real quality at-bat and brought it home for us.”

It was the 25th comeback win of the season for the Padres, who are 3-1 in extra innings, while the Dodgers are 7-5.

Robert Suarez (6-1) pitched a perfect 10th for the win.

Dodgers Jump Out to Early Lead

The Dodgers had taken a 5-0 lead in the first inning, capped by rookie Cavan Biggio’s two-run home run off the right-field foul pole with two outs.

But the Padres began their comeback with Machado’s leadoff homer off Glasnow in the second and two runs on three straight two-out hits in the third.

The Dodgers came into the night with a 6 1/2-game lead over the Padres, who were clinging to the third NL wild-card spot. San Diego had gone 7-2 on a three-city trip after the All-Star break.

Earlier, Los Angeles obtained right-hander Jack Flaherty from Detroit and four-time Gold Glove Award-winning center fielder Kevin Kiermaier from Toronto just before the trade deadline.

The Padres added to their already strong bullpen by acquiring All-Star left-hander Tanner Scott and right-hander Bryan Hoeing from the Miami Marlins for four prospects.

Glasnow Solid, Waldron Struggles

The Dodgers, who lost three of their previous five games, wasted no time jumping on knuckleballer Matt Waldron.

Shohei Ohtani drew a leadoff walk, stole second, advanced on Will Smith’s single and scored on Gavin Lux’s sacrifice fly. After Teoscar Hernández struck out, Waldron allowed a double to Jason Heyward, a two-run single to Andy Pages and Biggio’s homer, which bounced off the pole and hit right fielder David Peralta in the stomach. It was Biggio’s fifth.

Glasnow allowed three runs and six hits in seven innings, struck out eight and walked one.

Machado homered leading off the second. Jurickson Profar hit an RBI single and Jake Cronenworth an RBI double in the third.

Waldron allowed five runs and five hits in four innings, struck out six and walked one.

Machado, the third baseman, made two nice plays in foul territory, including leaning over the railing in front of the Dodgers’ dugout in the fourth to catch Kiké Hernández’s foul ball while blowing a bubble. He leaned against the railing for a few seconds and chatted with Teoscar Hernandez, who jokingly tried to grab the ball.

TRAINER’S ROOM

Padres: RF Fernando Tatis, on the IL with a stress reaction in his right thighbone, has started hitting and playing catch. GM A.J. Preller said Tatis is expected to return sometime this season.
