ATLANTA (AP) -- Eric Stults combined with two relievers on a five-hitter, Chase Headley homered and drove in two runs and the San Diego Padres beat the Atlanta Braves 4-1 on Monday night.
Stults (3-2) gave up five hits and one run in 7 2-3 innings -- his longest start in three years. While with the Dodgers, Stults beat the Giants 8-0 on May 9, 2009, his last complete game.
The Padres, who had a six-game winning streak snapped on Sunday, have won eight of 10 for the first time this season.
Yonder Alonso had three hits and Chris Denorfia had two hits and scored two runs for the Padres.
Stults lost his bid for a shutout in the eighth when Michael Bourn singled and scored on Martin Prado's triple into the right-field corner. Luke Gregerson struck out Jason Heyward to end the inning.
