San Diego put it away in the 12th. Tatis led off with a triple, Austin Allen and Machado had consecutive RBI doubles, and Renfroe hit a two-run homer off Jairo Diaz (1-1). It was Renfroe's second career three-homer game and gave him 21 homers for the season.
Later in the 12th for the Padres, Wil Myers doubled and scored on a wild pitch to cap the rally.
Blackmon hit a solo homer in the bottom of the inning, his 15th of the season.

San Diego got two back in the sixth, but Colorado put up five in the bottom of the inning. Desmond drove in three when he lined a pitch to the corner in right, raced around the bases and slid headfirst into home to make it 7-3.
It was Desmond's eighth home run of the season.
The Rockies tacked on two more in the inning on Dahl's single and Daniel Murphy's double.
