PEORIA, Ariz. (AP) _ Woody Williams had a rare strong spring outing, allowing only one run in five innings Thursday as the San Diego Padres beat the Colorado Rockies 6-1.

Williams allowed four hits and an unearned run in the longest outing by a Padres pitcher this spring. He entered the game with a 13.50 ERA in two starts, having allowed 10 hits, including three home runs, in 4 2-3 innings.

Williams, who got the win, was 1-2 with a 9.67 ERA in six games last spring, allowing 40 hits in 22 1-3 innings.

Al Martin went 2-for-3 and hit a leadoff homer off loser Brian Bohanon. It was Martin's second leadoff homer of the spring. Martin also scored two runs.

Ruben Rivera was 2-for-3, including a two-run triple off Bohanon in the fifth, and scored twice.

Carlos Hernandez, battling Ben Davis for the catcher's job, went 2-for-3 to improve to 10-for-19 this spring.

Bohanon went 4 1-3 innings, the longest stint by a Colorado pitcher this spring. He gave up three runs, nine hits and three walks.

Tom Goodwin went 3-for-4 and scored the Rockies' lone run. He started the game with a double off Williams, moved to third on a sacrifice bunt by Terry Shumpert and scored on Edgard Clemente's one-out sacrifice fly.

Notes: Padres RHP Brian Boehringer, on the mend from shoulder surgery that cut short his season last August, was scratched from a scheduled relief appearance because of tendinitis in his shoulder. ... 3B Phil Nevin, who sprained his right ankle on March 7, took grounders but is still about a week away from returning. ... With 12 hits, the Padres have had at least 10 hits in nine of their first 14 spring games. They've had three 15-hit games and one 19-hit game.
