Impact The veteran hurler kept the Padres off the scoreboard through six frames, but he lost the lead -- and a chance at a victory -- when Wil Myers tagged him for a two-run home run in the seventh. Despite the disappointing ending, the outing continued a recent turnaround for Bumgarner, who has posted a 2.09 ERA, 0.98 WHIP and 26:4 K:BB across his past six starts. The strong stretch has lowered the southpaw's ERA to 4.30 after it sat at 5.73 in early June. Bumgarner's next start is tentatively scheduled to take place at home versus Philadelphia next week.
