SAN DIEGO, June 29 (UPI) -- Adrian Beltre homered and knocked in three runs Sunday to key the Seattle Mariners' 9-2 rout at San Diego.

Edgar Gonzalez and Adrian Gonzalez drove in one run each for San Diego. Edgar Gonzalez and Scott Hairston had two hits apiece in the Padres' eighth loss in a row.

Losing pitcher Jake Peavy (5-5) surrendered three earned runs and 10 hits in six innings before the Padres' bullpen gave up the final six runs.
