Trevor Larnach and Edouard Julien each collected four hits Wednesday, while Matt Wallner capped a seven-run fourth inning with a three-run homer as the visiting Minnesota Twins routed the San Diego Padres 11-4 to salvage the finale of a three-game series.

Simeon Woods Richardson (5-3) was the beneficiary of an 18-hit attack, cruising through the first five innings to pick up the win. He allowed three hits and a run with two walks and seven strikeouts.

Minnesota snapped a three-game losing streak and finished a seven-game road trip 4-3. Willi Castro, Austin Martin and Jose Miranda each collected a pair of hits. Every starter but Carlos Santana had at least one hit.

Matt Waldron (7-11) was blasted for 10 runs on 12 hits over 4 1/3 innings, walking one and striking out three as his earned run average rose to 4.79. It marked the fourth time in five starts he has allowed at least five runs.

Waldron made it through one pass of the Twins' order with no problems before they began lighting him up. Royce Lewis gave Minnesota a 1-0 third inning lead with a sacrifice fly that scored Castro, who walked and reached third via Larnach's double.

The Twins blew it open in the fourth. Martin stroked a two-run double down the left field line, and Castro followed with another RBI double. After Lewis grounded a run-scoring single, Wallner smoked his eighth homer an estimated 410 feet to right field to make it 8-0.

Martin made it 9-0 in the fifth when he grounded an RBI double into the left field corner, then scored on Larnach's single off reliever Sean Reynolds.

Donovan Solano's pinch-hit homer in the fifth, his sixth of the year, got San Diego on the board.

The Padres made the final margin a bit more respectable with three runs in the eighth. Bryce Johnson singled home Jake Cronenworth before Jackson Merrill connected on his 18th homer, a two-run blast to right.

Minnesota capped the scoring in the ninth on a two-out RBI single by Manuel Margot that plated Julien.
