CINCINNATI – Josh Hamilton completed his sensational series with a pair of homers Sunday, and the Cincinnati Reds snapped their four-game losing streak with a 9-3 victory over the Colorado Rockies.

Right-hander Bronson Arroyo (2-2) got his first career victory over the Rockies with a performance of extremes. He shut out Colorado on two hits for the first five innings, then needed 48 pitches to get a pair of outs before leaving in the sixth.

Padres 3, Marlins 1

MIAMI – Jake Peavy allowed one hit in seven innings and struck out 10 for San Diego.

Braves 6, Dodgers 4

CHICAGO – Daryle Ward singled home the winning run in the 10th inning after Ryan Theriot tied it with a single in the ninth, and the surging Chicago Cubs beat Washington for their fifth straight victory.

Theriot’s big hit came off struggling closer Chad Cordero, who has four blown saves in eight chances.

The Nationals have lost five in a row overall. After the game, they placed right-hander John Patterson on the disabled list because of elbow inflammation. He could miss at least a month.

Matt Murton opened the bottom of the 10th with a double against Ryan Wagner (0-2) and scored the winning run, helping the Cubs to their eighth victory in nine games.

Ryan Dempster (1-1) pitched a scoreless inning for the win.
