Laureano, Machado, Castellanos homer in the Padres' 7-3 win over the Athletics
The Padres bounced back from consecutive losses to the NL West-leading Los Angeles Dodgers and beat the AL-West leading A's for the ninth time in their last 10 meetings. The Athletics had their three-game winning streak snapped.
Laureano's sixth shot chased starter Jeffrey Springs (3-5) and gave the Padres their first lead. San Diego added three runs in the eighth, including a two-run double by Gavin Sheets.
The Athletics' Nick Kurtz, the 2025 AL Rookie of the Year, hit an RBI double in the first to extend his on-base streak to 45 games, the longest in the majors this year and longest in a single season by an Athletics player since Mark McGwire's 48-game streak to open the 1996 season.
Machado's two-run line shot off Springs into the left-field seats tied it with two outs in the first. It was his eighth and came with Fernando Tatis Jr. aboard on a leadoff walk. It had a launch angle of just 20 degrees.
Castellanos hit a towering drive just fair off the side of the Western Metal Supply Co. brick warehouse in the left-field corner at Petco Park to tie it again at 3 with one out in the fifth. It was his fourth.
The A's loaded the bases against Bradgley Rodriguez with two outs in the sixth before Adrian Morejon (4-1) came on and struck out pinch-hitter Colby Thomas.
The Athletics took a 2-0 lead just four batters in, on Kurtz's double and Brent Rooker's groundout.
The A's took a 3-2 lead in the fourth when Zack Gelof hit a leadoff double to left and scored on Henry Bolte's single to center.
