For the first three weeks of the season the Padres were having trouble scoring runs. Turns out all they needed to do to get the offense going was a road trip to the National League Central.
After scoring 24 runs in the 3-game sweep in Cincinnati the Padres plated seven more to beat the Pirates in Pittsburgh 7-3, and it's nice when the offense and pitching both have nice nights.
Yu Darvish got the start and, after allowing two runs in a shaky 1st inning, settled in to go 6.0 frames with five strikeouts to get the win. San Diego started scoring in the 3rd inning, thanks again to a bottom of the order that's been consistently producing on this road trip. Ha-Seong Kim hit a missile into the left field seats, a 2-run shot to tie the game 2-2. Kim had a pair of hits and is really locked in at the plate. Over the last three games he's raised his average from .182 to .273 and hit a pair of homers.
