Homer Bailey Back At Home In The Show
San Diego Padres starter Paul Clemens throws against the Cincinnati Reds in the first inning of a baseball game Sunday, July 31, 2016, in San Diego.

The Reds took a 2-1 edge in the second, thanks to some power from an unlikely source. Bailey made Padres hitters look silly painting the corners with his fastball and dropping nasty curveballs that kept the Padres off balance.
Jackson’s downfall was getting too many of his pitches elevated.
The 26-year-old Dickerson – a. 382 hitter this year at Triple-A El Paso – had homered in four straight games when Padres manager Andy Green inserted him as his clean-up hitter for the second time on Friday only to have a first-inning collision prevent the Poway native from taking any swings. Amarista tried to score from third on a pitch that bounced away from Reds catcher Barnhart, who recovered in time to throw back to Bailey for the tag out of Amarista at the plate.
Alexi Amarista’s RBI single to right in the sixth tied it.
Michael Lorenzen and Blake Wood worked the final three innings to preserve the shutout.
Jose Dominguez, Ryan Buchter, Brandon Maurer and Brad Hand all followed Friedrich with ideal frames before Rosales greeted Jumbo Diaz in the 10th with a solo homer, his eighth of the year and his first walk-off homer of his career.
“I saw that (Bailey) would turn his back on a lot of close calls”, Myers said.
Finnegan (6-8) scattered four hits and sidestepped a few early jams before settling in. They added two runs in the fifth. The Reds scored first.
The Padres had a chance to cut into their 4-0 deficit in the second inning when loading the bases with two outs. San Diego bid adieu to right-handers Andrew Cashner, Colin Rea and Tayron Guerrero prior to the series opener, sending the trio to Miami in a seven-player trade, and also lost left fielder Alex Dickerson in the first inning to a right hip contusion. He is day-to-day. Jankowski then stole third and scored on Wil Myers’ ground out to Cozart.
Reds pitcher Homer Bailey learned that the hard way on Sunday.
Padres: RHP Tyson Ross (right shoulder, left ankle) continues to play catch, but there’s no timetable for him to resume throwing from the mound.

Before Rosales’ walk-off homer, a second quiet night at the plate threatened to waste Christian Friedrich’s first quality start since June 12.
