SAN DIEGO -- After a 10-game winless streak, San Diego Padres starter Eric Stults has found his groove. "Its nice to get over the hump," Stults said. "My last three starts, Ive found my rhythm." Stults allowed one run over 6 1-3 innings and Nick Hundley hit a three-run homer to lead the Padres to a 4-1 victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks on Monday night. It was the second straight win for Stults (10-13) after breaking a 10-game winless streak. He dropped his first six second-half decisions before prevailing in his previous outing against the Pittsburgh Pirates. "After the All-Star break I wasnt pitching like I wanted to," Stults said. "So I decided to just take it one start at a time and give us a quality game and try to give us a chance to win." Huston Street worked the ninth for his 33rd save in 34 chances. Stults struck out five and walked two in winning consecutive starts for the first time since July 9 and July 14. "That was indicative of a lot of the games weve seen Stults pitch here the last couple of years," Padres Manager Bud Black said. Hundley has four homers, five doubles and 16 RBIs in his last 30 games. The win was the Padres sixth in seven games against the Diamondbacks at Petco Park. The Padres had runners on in the second, fourth and fifth innings with none getting in scoring position. That changed in the sixth when Chase Headley notched his second hit and it was followed by Tommy Medicas single. Hundley smacked a 77 mph curveball from Brandon McCarthy (5-10) which landed just inside the left-field foul pole on the Western Metal Supply Co., buildings second deck. It extended Hundleys career highs to 12 home runs and 43 RBIs. "Its 0-1 and Im throwing a breaking ball there to try and set up something else," McCarthy said. "Its a bad pitch." Hundley wasnt sure if Mondays homer would stay fair. He gave it plenty a body English and then some. "A lot of prayers," he said. "Really anything that would help because I wasnt sure. About halfway down the line I thought it was foul and was hoping it would go fair, and it did." Arizona chased Stults with one out in the seventh on Cliff Penningtons double and a walk to Adam Eaton. Nick Vincent then got A.J. Pollock to pop up to Headley at third and struck out Paul Goldschmidt on three fastballs. "The huge at-bat was Goldschmidt," Black said. "He got a couple of fastballs by him and then a hard cutter. He didnt pick it up out of his hand and had kind of a funky swing on it." The Padres, after being shut out the previous two games by the Los Angeles Dodgers, snapped a 21-inning scoreless string in the first inning. Leadoff hitter Chris Denorfia singled and advanced to second on a groundout. Headleys single made it 1-0. Arizona tied the score in the second on Eatons fielder choice, which followed singles by Matt Davidson, Will Nieves and Pennington, with Davidson scoring. But the Diamondbacks let a big chance slip away. "Hes throwing the ball well here," Arizona manager Kirk Gibson said. "He threw a big game. We had some opportunities. The guys got frustrated and he was throwing the ball where he wanted to throw it. We had some lost opportunities." Padres shortstop Ronny Cedeno was beaned by Heath Bell in the seventh inning and left the game. Black said Cedeno was woozy and had a headache, but was not being hospitalized for an evaluation.

LOS ANGELES -- The Marlins got the news theyd been dreading since Sunday, when ace Jose Fernandez was scratched from his regular bullpen session in San Diego: He is probably going to miss the rest of the season. Miamis 7-1 loss to Josh Beckett and the Los Angeles Dodgers on Tuesday night was overshadowed by the announcement team president Michael Hill made in the Dodger Stadium press box during the third inning. Hill said Marlins doctor Lee Kaplan had recommended Tommy John surgery to repair a significant tear in Fernandezs right elbow. "Getting the confirmation that we all obviously didnt want is a big blow for us, for the team and for the organization," manager Mike Redmond said. "I know hes going through some tough decisions, but we know hell get himself fixed up and well get him back as soon as we can." The 21-year-old Fernandez, last seasons NL Rookie of the Year, is 4-2 with a 2.44 ERA in eight starts. "Pitchings a precious commodity and weve always tried to be very careful with it. So you try to err on the side of caution," Hill said. "Weve done everything weve thought was the right thing, as to how weve handled him. Its just one of those things that happened." Fernandez would be the latest star pitcher in the majors to have Tommy John surgery this year. The recovery time for the elbow ligament transplant procedure can be 12 to 18 months. The Marlins put Fernandez ace on the 15-day disabled list Monday. "Im sure he feels like hes letting his teammates down because he got hurt, and all the things that come with the type of competitor he is," Redmond said. "But all we really want is for him to be OK and getting himself healthy and getting back to the ballclub. Thats the important thing." Fernandez is visiting with family to talk about his options with surgery looming. "He didnt really give us an idea of when," Hill said. "Obviously, a lot has gone on the past few days, so for him its a lot to take in and a lot to absorb. So hes just taking the time to digest all the information hes been given from both doctors. "From what the doctors saw, they did not want to go the rehab route. They felt like surgery was the best option, and that was the recommendation. Hopefully, we can make that call and get things set up and get it taken care of so we can get him on the road to rehab," Hill added. Right-hander Anthony DeSclafani will be promoted from the minors to start Wednesday night in his major league debut..dddddddddddd "Hes a guy thats done well in the minor leagues and we felt like he was probably the most ready to make the start," Redmond said. Beckett spent his first five big league seasons with the Marlins and was the World Series MVP with them in 2003. He empathized with Fernandez and the long road back that lies ahead. "Hes got a wipeout slider. I dont know how long hes been throwing that, but it puts a lot more stress on your elbow," Beckett said. "The one good thing about that surgery -- for the most part -- is that people come back from it and they know how to rehab that. From what I hear from everybody over there, hes a diligent worker. The rehabs already written out. He just has to go through the surgery. "If it was a shoulder or something like that, I think it would be a little bit bigger issue," Beckett said. "So hell be back full strength next year. Obviously theyre going to miss his leadership and what he brings to the ballpark on the days he pitches and the days he doesnt. He brings the Puig factor to that ballclub." Dodgers right fielder Yasiel Puig extended his career-best hitting streak to 13 games with two hits, including an RBI double. It was Puig bobblehead night at Dodger Stadium and the outfielder caught a ceremonial first pitch from his mother, Maritza. Beckett (1-1) gave up an unearned run and four hits over 6 2-3 innings, striking out six and walking three. The three-time All-Star was 0-6 in 14 starts since beating Colorado 7-1 at Dodger Stadium on Sept. 30, 2012. "You cant help but think about it after a while," Beckett said. "I mean, I know I was only about halfway to the record, but even to get halfway there is kind of tough. But I knew if I kept making pitches, this team was bound to score some runs. This lineup were running out there every day is pretty good." Jacob Turner (0-1) gave up four earned runs in 5 1-3 innings and is winless in 16 starts since last July. He is 0-10 in 17 career starts on the road with a 3.97 ERA. "They put good swings on the ball," Turner said. "There were some pitches I made that werent in spots I was trying to go, and a good lineup like that is going to capitalize on it." NOTES: After the game, the Marlins designated RHP Henry Rodriguez for assignment and optioned LHP Dan Jennings to Triple-A New Orleans. ... Marlins RF Giancarlo Stanton extended his hitting streak to 15 games with an infield single in the fourth. ' ' '
