SAN DIEGO â Drew Pomeranz and four relievers combined on a three-hitter, Jon Jay had three hits and an R.B.I., and the San Diego Padres beat the Mets in a second consecutive game, 2-0, on Friday night. The Padres, who have been blanked eight times this year, pitched their first shutout of 2016. They have held the defending National League champion Mets to three runs and seven hits in the first two games of a four-game series.
With one out, Travis d'Arnaud hit a sacrifice fly to tie things up. Murphy struck again in the sixth and belted a solo home run into the right field seats off Greinke, who also struck out seven, to break the tie and put the Mets ahead, 3-2. It would prove to be just enough.
