Kieboom hit a homer in his third at-bat Friday in his first game in the majors. Soto had 22 homers as a rookie last year.

Greg Garcia hit a solo homer in the first as the second batter of the game to give the Padres a 1-0 lead.

Eric Hosmer (three hits) led off the second with a double and scored when Hunter Renfroe, who had two homers in the series, had a bloop double to left for a 2-0 lead.

Manny Machado had an RBI single in the third, and two batters later, Hosmer crushed a three-run shot to left off starter Jeremy Hellickson, giving the Padres a 6-0 lead.

The Nationals scored four of their own in the third to pull within 6-4.

Robles had an infield single, Brian Dozier singled and then Soto hit a three-run homer -- his sixth of the year. Kurt Suzuki added an RBI single later in the inning.

Hellickson went three innings and allowed six runs (five earned) on six hits, with no walks and three strikeouts. Joey Lucchesi, the third lefty to start for the Padres in the series, gave up five runs (four earned) in four innings. He allowed nine hits while walking one and striking out five.

Erick Fedde took over in the fourth for Washington and tossed four scoreless innings.

The winning pitcher was Justin Miller (1-0), who pitched a scoreless 11th inning, while Wisler (1-1) took the loss.
