Summary
The Padres had a chance to take three of four from the Diamondbacks, but after Manny Machado’s second-inning home run, the offense disappeared. Merrill Kelly dominated over seven innings, Arizona scored three unanswered runs, and San Diego settled for a four-game series split. On tonight’s Locked On Padres POSTCAST, we break down Greg Canning’s outing, the costly fourth inning, the continued dominance of Manny Machado, and why scoring one run simply isn’t enough. Plus, we look ahead to the final series before the All-Star break as the Toronto Blue Jays come to town. The Padres bounced back nicely after losing the opener by winning Games 2 and 3, but couldn’t finish off the series. They’ll now try to build momentum heading into the break after previously salvaging the Dodgers series with Sunday’s win.
