Summary
The San Diego Padres returned home and delivered exactly the response they needed, beating the Minnesota Twins 6-2 at Petco Park in the opening game of the series. After dropping two of three against the New York Mets, San Diego got a tremendous start from Randy Vásquez, timely hitting throughout the lineup and a dominant finish from the bullpen. Vásquez retired the first nine Minnesota hitters he faced and ultimately worked seven innings, allowing only two hits and two earned runs with no walks and three strikeouts on 87 pitches. After Kody Clemens tied the game with a two-run triple in the fourth inning, Vásquez responded by retiring the next 10 Twins in a row. The Padres offense gave him plenty of support.
