Miami, FL (Sports Network) - Nathan Eovaldi brought some Hollywood flair to South Florida as he won his Marlins debut, 4-2, over the San Diego Padres.

Eovaldi (2-6), who was acquired from the Los Angeles Dodgers on Wednesday, held the Padres to one run on five hits and two walks in 5 1/3 innings. He also struck out five.

Despite changing coasts and jerseys, Eovaldi remained hot. Over his last four starts, he is 2-1 with a 2.67 earned run average.

Jose Reyes homered to extend his hitting streak to 15 games, as the Marlins snapped a three-game losing streak and won for just the second time in their last 10 games.

Ross Ohlendorf (3-1) lost for the first time this season after allowing three runs on four hits and two walks in six innings.

Yonder Alonso picked up two hits and drove in a run for the second straight night, as the Padres dropped the middle installment of this three-game set.
