Machado went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in a 7-5 win against the Cardinals on Tuesday.
Machado ended a nine-pitch at-bat with a solo home run in the second inning to put the Padres on the board. It was the slugger's second long ball in as many games and his sixth home run through 23 contests in August. Machado is at 22 homers on the season, so he'll need to stay hot down the stretch to get to 30 home runs for the third straight campaign.
