Franmil Reyes hit two of the Padres' five home runs Wednesday afternoon as visiting San Diego completed a two-game sweep with a 10-5 victory over the Orioles.

Reyes drove in three runs with a solo, 452-foot homer off Orioles starter Dylan Bundy in the third and a 412-foot, two-run shot off reliever Shawn Armstrong in the fifth. Reyes has 22 homers on the season.

Greg Garcia put the Padres ahead 2-1 with a two-run homer in the second. Eric Hosmer added a two-run homer off Armstrong in the sixth. And Hunter Renfroe greeted left-handed reliever Tanner Scott with his 24th homer leading off the seventh.

Hosmer finished a 3-for-5 day with four RBIs. Former Oriole Manny Machado singled ahead of Reyes' second homer, to stretch his hitting streak to 13 games.

The Padres hit a total of nine homers in the two-game series, a franchise record for back-to-back games and the first time since 2007 that they've hit four or more homers in consecutive contests.

The Orioles also had a pair of homers. Jonathan Villar, who finished with three hits, hit a two-run homer off Padres left-handed starter Matt Strahm in the bottom of the fourth to pull the Orioles to within 4-3. Catcher Pedro Severino hit a solo homer off Strahm in the sixth.

Strahm (3-6) allowed four runs on five hits with no walks and nine strikeouts in six innings to snap a three-decision losing streak. Bundy was charged with five runs on six hits and three walks with four strikeouts in four-plus innings to fall to 3-10.

The Orioles took a 1-0 lead in the first on a leadoff triple by Hanser Alberto and a one-out double by Renato Nunez. Baltimore loaded the bases in both the seventh and eighth innings but scored only one run while leaving the bases loaded in both innings.
