Dodgers snap scoreless streak, Joc Pederson home run beats Padres

LOS ANGELES -- Joc Pederson hit a game-winning solo home run in the eighth inning, giving the Dodgers a 2-1 win over the Padres in a battle of struggling offenses on Friday night at Dodger Stadium.

The Dodgers went scoreless until the fifth inning, running their scoreless streak to 35 consecutive innings, tying the record for franchise futility since the club moved to Los Angeles in 1958.

But in the fifth inning, Justin Turner opened with a single, followed by a double from Andre Ethier, giving the Dodgers a 1-0 lead and their first run since the fourth inning on Sunday against Colorado.
