Padres commit season-high three errors, including to in Giants' six-run third inning; team falls to season-worst 11 games below .500
And on the final day of August, the wheels came off.
This was true right up through the just-completed road trip, on which they lost five of six but could in a few of those defeats point to and lament about the vagaries of luck and being close.In losing 7-2 to the Giants in the first game of a four-game series, the Padres were dreadful. The Padres had a total of six hits, none of which came before they were down 7-0 in the fifth inning.The third inning should have begun with an out. But LaMonte Wade Jr.’s grounder caromed off the glove of Batten, who had gone 4-for-4 with two doubles in his previous start and was given the start in place of Garrett Cooper, who has been starting in place of the injured Jake Cronenworth.
Wade Meckler then laid down a bunt to the right side that Avila fielded but threw high and late to Kim covering first, as Yastrzemski scored. The next batter, Blake Sabol, grounded a ball up the middle that went under Kim’s glove, off his foot and into center field, sending Davis home and Meckler to third. A sacrifice fly by Casey Schmitt scored Meckler to make it 6-0 before Wade flied out.
