 CINCINNATI (AP) - Top draft pick Tim Stauffer got a win on his very first try, helping Bruce Bochy get No. 800. Stauffer repeatedly pitched out of jams of his own making during his big league debut, and Ryan Klesko hit a three-run homer Wednesday that led the San Diego Padres to a 7-2 victory over the Cincinnati Reds.
San Diego's eighth victory in 10 games handed Bochy his 800th win as a manager. Only Bobby Cox, Joe Torre and Tony La Russa have more wins with their current clubs.
Dave Roberts had four hits and Mark Loretta got five at the top of San Diego's order, leading a 16-hit outburst. Klesko's sixth homer in his last nine games put San Diego ahead to stay in the fourth.
