Robbie Ray struck out nine in seven innings and became the National League’s first eight-game winner as the San Francisco Giants beat the San Diego Padres 3-2.

On the day the Giants cut ties with LaMonte Wade, there was perhaps no more fitting tribute to him than grinding out a win.

Following a shocking flurry of roster moves, the Giants erased a five-run deficit against the San Diego Padres to beat their divisional rival, 6-5, snapping a streak of 16 consecutive games without scoring more than four runs.
