LOS ANGELES — Rich Hill allowed two hits over seven innings and Yasiel Puig, Curtis Granderson and Corey Seager homered to power the Los Angeles Dodgers to a 10-0 victory over the San Diego Padres on Wednesday night.

The Dodgers (102-57) still own the best record in baseball and appear to be cruising into the post-season with renewed life in their bats and solid pitching. They tied the Los Angeles franchise record for wins in a season at 102, which was last done in 1974.

In sweeping the Padres (70-89), the Dodgers outscored them 29-5 over the three games.

Hill (12-8) had a fantastic final tuneup before the post-season. He struck out 10 and walked two.

The Dodgers will host the first game of the NLDS against the to-be-determined wild-card winner on Oct. 6 at Dodger Stadium.

Dodgers outfielder Chris Taylor suffered a left knee contusion in trying to beat a throw to first base in the first inning. He reached on an error. Taylor was checked by Dodgers manager Dave Roberts and a trainer and remained in the game but after Seager was walked and he moved to second base, he left the game and was removed for pinch-runner Granderson.

Taylor is batting .287 with 32 home runs and 70 RBIs.

The Padres pitching staff had trouble getting outs once again. Left-hander Clayton Richard (8-15) allowed eight runs — six earned — and eight hits in five innings. He struck out seven and walked three. Kirby Yates relieved Richard in the sixth and promptly gave up back-to-back home runs to Granderson and Seager. It was the eighth time this season the Dodgers have hit back-to-back homers.

UP NEXT

Padres: RHP Jordan Lyles (1-4, 7.23 ERA) will make his fifth and final start of the season in San Francisco, where he's 1-1 with a 5.19 ERA.

Dodgers: LHP Hyun-Jin Ryu (5-8, 3.47) will start Friday in Colorado after throwing a successful bullpen Tuesday. He was hit in the left arm by a comebacker Saturday in San Francisco but X-rays were negative.
