SAN FRANCISCO -- It just so happens Jake Smith earned his first major league win against his old Giants franchise, the one that found him on the grounds crew at Class A Augusta, gave him a tryout and, eventually, a place on the team. Wholesale Air Max Shoes .Smith capitalized for San Diego when his name got called Tuesday night for a key late inning facing San Francisco.Ryan Schimpf hit a go-ahead three-run homer with two outs in the ninth inning, and the Giants relievers gave up a lead and chance to gain ground on the division-leading Dodgers in a 6-4 loss to the Padres on Tuesday night.Smith (1-0) pitched the eighth for his first career victory after San Diego claimed him from the Giants in July, then Kevin Quackenbush finished for his second save as some Giants fans booed.Schimpf really did all the work. I just threw up a zero, Smith said. I knew all season we had the ability to do stuff like this.Hunter Strickland (3-3) started the ninth and allowed two runs, three singles and a bases-loaded walk to Wil Myers, then Steven Okert entered to try to get the final out. Schimpf clobbered the fourth offering and sent it into the center-field bleachers for his 19th homer.Okert offered no excuses. He was ready to go despite the short notice to warm up.Its September, were in the playoff race, youre checked in the whole game, he said.There were two bloopers and a groundball Buster Posey stopped at first base only to have the ball ricochet off his glove on a failed play. The Giants blew their sixth save in 10 September opportunities.Angel Pagan homered leading off the fifth and Gorkys Hernandez also homered for the Giants, who stayed four games back of NL West-leading Los Angeles after the Dodgers lost earlier at the New York Yankees. San Francisco remained percentage points ahead of the Mets for the top NL wild-card spot.Hunter Pence hit a run-scoring double and Brandon Crawford had an RBI single for San Francisco, which will host St. Louis for a four-game weekend set and still must play six with the Dodgers among the final 18 games of the season.Its a punch in the stomach, Giants manager Bruce Bochy said. Youve got to bounce back.Albert Suarez, who has bounced between the rotation and bullpen, had been in position to win for the first time since June 23 at Pittsburgh -- a span of six starts and 10 outings. The right-hander gave up one run and six hits, struck out one and walked two in five innings.Shut out on five hits a night earlier, the Giants got a unique lineup from Bochy -- and not all by design, either.Posey had been scheduled to have a night off but Bochy used his regular catcher at first base given all of the other regulars not in the lineup. First baseman Brandon Belt was ill.The Giants lost their fifth straight to San Diego during which they had been outscored 26-14 after winning the initial nine matchups of 2016.Its kind of the same fight weve shown all year, Padres manager Andy Green said. The results dont show that. Its been a very resilient team.Padres starter Clayton Richard surrendered a season-high 11 hits in 5 2/3 innings. He allowed three runs, struck out four and walked three in his sixth start of the season for the Padres after signing last month following his release by the Cubs.TRAINERS ROOMPadres: Green still hopes RHP Jon Edwards will return from an elbow strain and pitch before seasons end. He had a platelet-rich plasma and stem cell injection a couple of weeks ago then threw at instructional league Tuesday with plans to do so again. That would be followed by live batting practice. ... San Diego hopes RHP Jarred Cosart (hamstring, groin) will be ready to start Sundays series finale at Colorado or at the latest Monday against Arizona.UP NEXTPadres: RHP Luis Perdomo (7-9, 5.89 ERA) makes his fourth career appearance and second start against the Giants. He is 5-7 with a 4.09 ERA over his last 23 starts.Giants: LHP Madison Bumgarner (14-8, 2.61) goes for the 100th victory of his career as the series wraps up Wednesday afternoon. He is 3-0 with a 1.19 ERA in his last four home starts vs. San Diego with 38 strikeouts to four walks. Air Max 2018 Womens Pink . Manuel was offered a position the day he was fired. He accepted earlier this week and the team made the announcement Friday. Air Max 2018 Black Shoes . Emery skated the length of the ice and fought an unwilling Holtby during the third period of the Flyers 7-0 loss Friday night in Philadelphia.

BALTIMORE -- The Baltimore Orioles have completed a deal for Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Michael Bourn.In return for Bourn, the Orioles are sending minor league outfielder Jason Heinrich, a fifth-round pick in 2015, to the Diamondbacks.A former fourth-round pick in 2003, Bourn hit .261 and had 13 steals in 89 games with the Diamondbacks this year. The 33-year-old speedster has a lifetime .266 average and is a two-time All-Star. He led the National League in stolen bases in three consecutive seasons (2009-11) and ranks sixth among active players with 339 career steals.Just all-around, can play all three positions, Orioles manager Buck Showalter said in summarizing what Bourn brings to the team. Left-handed, veteran guy who knows his way around. Got a great reputation as a teammate and professional and brings some things we are in need of and have been for a while with?Adam [Jones]. I am hoping he is ready to play Friday, but weve got to prepare for if he isnt. And?Nolan [Reimold]?has done a serviceable job for us, but its a place we would like to be better at, if possible. And he and?[Drew] Stubbs?have a lot?of?experience there.Bourn becomes the second outfielder of the day to join the Orioles, who are dealing with injuries to Jones, the teams starting center fielder, as well as his backup, rookie Joey Rickard, who was moved to the 60-day disabled list to make room for Bourn.Earlier on Wednesday, Baltimore claimed Stubbs, a veteran outfielder,?off waivers from the?Texas Rangers.?Because Bourn and Stubbs were acquired before Sept. 1, they would be eligible to play in the postseason should Baltimore qualify. The Orioles are in third place in the American League East, four games behind the Toronto Blue Jays, but tied for the second AL wild-card spot with the Detroit Tigers.In regard to Stubbs, BBaltimore general manager Dan Duquette said, He gives us a good, solid, dependable defensive outfielder, and [hes] also a pretty good base stealer. Air Max 98 Shoes 2018. .A former first-round pick in 2006, Stubbs ranks ninth among active players with an 82.9 percent success rate on stolen bases.A career .244 hitter over eight big league seasons, Stubbs slashed .259/.343/.414 in 39 games with the?Atlanta Braves?and Rangers this year.Jones was not in the lineup for a fifth straight game, but he did take batting practice on Wednesday. Showalter said that the five-time All-Star is available off the bench and indicated he is close to returning.With backup center fielder Rickard on the DL, corner outfielder Reimold has been filling in at center field. The Orioles have an off day Thursday before opening up a three-game set with the?New York Yankees?on Friday, when Stubbs is expected to join the club.Earlier in the day, the Orioles also traded for left-hander Kyle Lobstein. Baltimore sent minor league lefty Zach Phillips to Pittsburgh to complete the deal. Lobsteins stint with the Os didnt last long, however, as the team designated him for assignment once they successfully acquired Stubbs.The Orioles said they are hoping Lobstein clears waivers and rejoins the club.At this time of year, theres a lot of players moving around and theres deadlines, Duquette said. Youre trying to not only get your team ready but to get your roster ready in the event that you advance to the playoffs. Youre trying to acquire players to add to your club but also get your roster in order so you can make the right choices if youre successful and get into the playoffs. Thats what were trying to do with Lobstein.
