Teoscar Hernandez and James Paxton combine to get Dodgers back on winning track

They were the other ones, co-stars if not background extras in the blockbuster story that was the Dodgers' offseason.

Hernandez's grand slam opened up a tight game and Paxton delivered six scoreless innings in his strongest start of the season as the Dodgers beat the San Diego Padres 5-0 Saturday night in front of the largest crowd in Petco Park history (46,701).
