Davies (3-3) yielded just one hit and two walks
while striking out four. Davies, who pitched for the Padres in
2020, owns a 2.16 ERA since posting a 9.47 ERA in April.
The Cubs led just 1-0 before exploding for four runs in the
sixth -- the final two coming on Wisdom's eighth homer in 15
games since being promoted from the minors on May 25.
Chicago has hit at least one homer in each of its past nine
games, belting 18 long balls in that span.
The Padres' only hit off Davies was Fernando Tatis Jr.'s two-out
single in the fourth.
Contreras' fourth-inning solo homer to left off a slider was the
only hit San Diego's Dinelson Lamet allowed through five
innings.
Lamet saw his success quickly expire in the sixth, during which
he was charged with three runs without retiring a hitter.
Joc Pederson and Kris Bryant opened the inning with back-to-back
singles. Rizzo then hit a liner to right-center that skipped
past center fielder Jurickson Profar for a two-run double.
Miguel Diaz replaced Lamet, retired Contreras on a groundout
then gave up the two-run homer to Wisdom.
Lamet wound up allowing four runs on four hits and a walk in
five-plus innings, his longest outing of the season. He struck
out a season-high-tying six.
Pederson doubled with one out in the seventh and scored on
Rizzo's opposite-field, two-out homer off Nabil Crismatt.
After managing only two hits through the first eight innings,
the Padres finally got on the board in the bottom of the ninth.
Reliever Alec Mills walked the first two hitters he faced ahead
of a one-out, RBI double by Ha-Seong Kim. Mills struck out Eric
Hosmer and Wil Myers to end the game.
