Braves pitcher Alex Wood took a step backward Friday night against the Padres, dropping to 7-8 on the season. The right-hander permitted five runs -- four earned -- on 12 hits and one walk while striking out four over five innings of a 5-2 defeat.

Over his last three starts covering 16 1/3 innings, Wood has allowed nine earned runs. He owns a 3.44 ERA and a 1.23 WHIP over 96 2/3 innings of work. His next start will come Wednesday against the Dodgers in Los Angeles.
