PHOENIX (AP) — Nick Hundley homered and the San Diego Padres held on for a 7-6 victory Sunday that snapped the Arizona Diamondbacks’ franchise-record home winning streak at 15 games.

Jesus Guzman and James Darnell had two RBIs apiece for the Padres, who ended a three-game losing streak and won for just the second time in seven games.

San Diego starter Wade LeBlanc (3-5) went 5 2-3 innings and allowed four runs and four hits while snapping a personal three-game losing streak.

Heath Bell, who allowed two homers in the ninth on Saturday, got three outs for his 37th save in 42 chances.

Henry Blanco homered and Chris Young added a two-run double for the Diamondbacks.
