Alex Wood no-hit San Diego for five innings and Thairo Estrada and Wilmer Flores hit early two-run homers Sunday afternoon as the visiting San Francisco Giants routed the Padres 12-0 for a second straight win and a split of a four-game series.
Wood (6-7) held the Padres scoreless on three hits and a walk with eight strikeouts over seven innings. Wood's performance came after Carlos Rodon held the Padres to one run on three hits in a complete game Saturday night.
Flores, who hit the Giants' go-ahead homer Saturday, was 4-for-6 in Sunday's game with two homers and four RBIs. His second homer came off Padres' infielder Matthew Batten in the ninth. Flores has 12 homers on the season -- three in the last two games.
The Giants jumped on Padres starter MacKenzie Gore (4-4) for eight runs on eight hits and a walk in just 3 1/3 innings.
The first time Wood and Gore were matched on May 22 in San Francisco, the Padres prevailed 10-1. Wood gave up five runs on eight hits in three innings in that game while Gore gave up a run on three hits over six innings.
The results were just the opposite Sunday.
Estrada put the Giants on the board with a two-run homer following Darin Ruf's single leading off the second. The homer was Estrada's seventh. An inning later, Austin Slater doubled to open the inning and Flores homered.
The Giants then scored four times in the fourth off Gore.
David Villar opened the inning with a single, advanced to second on a groundout and scored on Austin Wynns' single. Mike Yastrzemski followed with an RBI triple and scored on Slater's single. Back-to-back singles by Flores and pinch-hitter Luis Gonzalez off reliever Tayler Scott closed the book on Gore.
The Giants added two runs in the seventh on a single by Yastrzemski and an infield out by Flores and single runs in the eighth (a Joey Bart RBI) and ninth (Flores' second homer) to finish with 12 runs on 17 hits.
The Padres' first hit was a line drive single to left by C.J. Abrams leading off the sixth.
