LOS ANGELES -- Coming off one of the best months of his career, Zack Greinke hopes hes not peaking too early. Zane Gonzalez Jersey . After all, the playoffs are looming, and thats a place the Los Angeles Dodgers havent been since 2009. "Just dont want to waste all the good starts now," Greinke said after allowing one run over seven innings of a 2-1 victory over the San Diego Padres on Sunday. "Its been good the last nine, 10 starts," he said. "Locations been as good as its been for a long stretch." Yasiel Puig homered in the sixth to help the Dodgers complete a three-game sweep. The NL West leaders earned their 10th sweep of the season and first against San Diego. With their fourth straight victory, they extended their roll from August, when the Dodgers went 23-6 for their most wins in a month since moving to Los Angeles in 1958. "Our guys have grinded it out pretty good," Dodgers manager Don Mattingly said. "We had trouble putting runs on the board (the last two games)." Greinke (14-3) won his sixth straight start for the first time since winning nine in a row over the 2008-09 seasons. The right-hander gave up two hits, struck out seven and walked two. Greinke, who came in batting .340, also singled with two outs in the fifth. He stole second with a head-first slide that inning. "It was a last-minute decision," he said. "I felt it was safer than going feet first. He didnt put his foot or knee in front of the bag. A tight game at the moment, so I thought it was important to get to second base. It ended up working fine." Puig hit his 14th homer into the left-field pavilion on the first pitch he saw from Dale Thayer (2-5) with one out in the sixth, giving the Dodgers a 2-1 lead. The sellout crowd of 52,168 cheered the 22-year-old Cuban defector on Cuban Heritage Day. His homers are third-most on the team despite playing in just 79 games since being called up from the minors. Paco Rodriguez, born in Miami of Cuban descent, retired both batters he faced in the eighth, extending his scoreless innings streak to 11.0 in 13 appearances since Aug. 3. "Of course I felt good I hit a home run on Cuban Heritage Day," Puig said through a Spanish translator. "I also felt great Paco was able to have a good outing as well." Puig and Rodriguez interacted with fans before the game, when Puig also met actor Andy Garcia, who was born in Havana, Cuba. "I felt very proud to meet another Cuban who is famous here in the United States," Puig said. Kenley Jansen retired the side in the ninth, including two strikeouts to give him 100 this season, for his 24th save in 27 chances, including 17 in a row. "He wants to be that guy," Mattingly said. "Were seeing a guy who is more and more confident." San Diego had the potential tying run on third in the eighth after Reymond Fuentes singled, went to second on a wild pitch by Ronald Belisario and advanced to third on a groundout. Rodriguez came in and struck out Will Venable before pinch-hitter Chris Denorfia grounded back to the mound. The ball bounced off the pitchers glove before Rodriguez chased it down and threw out Denorfia to end the inning. The Dodgers tied the score at 1 in the third on Mark Ellis RBI single with two outs that scored Carl Crawford, who doubled. San Diego went ahead in the top of the third on Alexi Amaristas two-out RBI single that scored Fuentes, who walked, got sacrificed to second and stole third. Fuentes singled in the eighth for his first major league hit. Padres starter Tyson Ross gave up one run and five hits in five innings. He struck out a career-high 10 and walked one. "I wish I could have pitched deeper into the game, but they were making me work and having some patient at-bats," he said. "I was just trying to execute in a couple of tough situations. Giving up one run and keeping us in the ballgame is always my goal." The Padres were limited to their fewest hits in the three-game series after getting 11 on Friday and 10 on Saturday. They lost for the sixth time in eight games.

The Mets were still in the game thanks to a very good pitching performance by Zach Wheeler, who gave up only one hit through six innings before tiring in the seventh.

"That was an outstanding performance by Wheeler," Collins said. "He can go home and know that he did his job tonight." Collins said he was particularly pleased to see the hitting performances of Murphy, who had three hits, Wright, who had the single, and Duda. "When those three guys are hitting, we are going to win games," he said. Carlos Torres (5-4) pitched the eighth inning to get the win.
