ARLINGTON, Texas — David Peralta hit a tiebreaking, two-run homer in the seventh inning for his first of the season in the San Diego Padres' 6-4 victory over the Texas Rangers on Wednesday night. The 427-foot drive into the Texas bullpen in right-center helped give the Padres their 10th win in 13 games. San Diego ended Texas' three-game home shutout streak on Manny Machado's two-run shot in the third. Jurickson Profar had two hits on the night he was named an All-Star for the first time as an NL starter. The nod came almost 12 years after Profar made his major league debut as a 19-year-old for the Rangers, with him in the city of his original team, and where the All-Star Game will be held July 16.
