SAN DIEGO – Tadahito Iguchi hit a home run off Yusmeiro Petit with one out in the 13th inning to lift the San Diego Padres to an 8-7 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks on Saturday and snap a five-game skid.

San Diego went extra innings for the third time in five home games, including a 22-inning loss to Colorado on April 17 that lasted 6 hours, 16 minutes. This one went 4:02.

Iguchi’s homer came on a full-count pitch from Petit (0-1). It was his first home run for the Padres and his first since Aug. 27 when he played for Philadelphia.

The home run was also San Diego’s first hit since the sixth inning as it won for just second time in 11 games.

Glendon Rusch (1-2) allowed two hits in four innings with four strikeouts and two walks.

The Padres had leads of 4-0 and 5-2 before Arizona scored twice in the fifth on a two-run triple by Orlando Hudson and added two more runs in the sixth, including an RBI double by pitcher Micah Owens, for a 6-5 lead.

San Diego went ahead 7-6 in the bottom half on Adrian Gonzalez’s two-run single. Arizona tied it in the seventh after a leadoff double by Eric Byrnes, who was sacrificed to third and scored on Conor Jackson’s single.

Gonzalez drove in three runs for the Padres, who came into the game second to last in the majors in runs scored. San Diego had scored just six runs in the previous 63 innings at spacious Petco Park before it pushed across four runs in the second inning off Owings.

Brian Giles hit a solo homer, his second, in the fourth off Owings for a 5-2 lead. It was San Diego’s first home run at home in nine games since Giles connected on April 4 against the Los Angeles Dodgers, a span of 378 plate appearances and 93 innings.

Chris Young hit a two-run homer for Arizona, which has the best record in the majors at 17-7.

Owings left the game with a sprained ankle in the sixth inning after his RBI double down the right-field line. Owings pulled up into second base when his right leg buckled as he stepped on the base. Owings fell off the bag before he retouched the base and called time.

Owings sat on the infield dirt for a couple of minutes before he limped off the field.

The right-hander allowed five runs on five hits in five innings with five strikeouts and three walks. Owings had three hits and scored twice.

San Diego took a 4-0 lead in the second with the help of three walks by Owings. Starting pitcher Justin Germano had an RBI single followed by a two-run single by Paul McAnulty before Gonzalez followed with an RBI single.
