As the Dodgers readied for their series in San Diego, manager Don Mattingly was worried about his club being complacent - Los Angeles had just swept a pivotal three-game series with NL West-rival San Francisco, and the Padres had been fading. The Dodgers won three of four games, are a season-high 20 games above .500 and 7 1/2 games ahead of the Giants. A.J. Ellis had an RBI single and the Dodgers capitalized on some sloppy Padres defense to win for the 11th time in their last 13 games.
