Dodgers can’t muster much against Yu Darvish and Padres in 7-1 loss

and struck out nine over seven shutout innings against his former club in the Dodgers’ 7-1 loss Friday night at Dodger Stadium.
May allowed just four hits, but walked six and was charged with six earned runs.
Machado and Brandon Drury each hit two-run home runs off him.
Dodgers reliever Heath Hembree gave up a three-run home run to Jurickson Profar in the sixth inning.
Joey Gallo drove in the Dodgers’ only run in the ninth on a single into the right-field corner,
plating Justin Turner after he reached base on his second double of the game.
Hanser Alberto pitched the ninth for the Dodgers and benefited from a nice sliding catch by Trayce Thompson before getting out of a bases-loaded jam.
