The San Diego Padresstarted out strong in the 1st inning with Adrian Gonzales scoring his brother with a RBI double andKevin Kouzmanoff scoring Brain Giles on the next hit. Then in the second inning Edger Gonzaleshit a 3 run home-run making it 5-0 padres.

But it would not hold up as Randy Wolfgave up 4 runs in the 5th inning and 2 in the sixth going 5 and two thirds innings give up 8 hits 6 runs, 4 of them earned 2 BB 4 SO. The game was close but the padres couldn’t respond after the cardinal started coming back in the 5th, the padres should have know that the cardinals powerful lineup was going to rebound after the first two innings.

Well will all see if the padres can pull at least one out of this series tomorrow with Cha Seung Baek(2-5) 5.25 ERA vs J.Garcia 0.00 in two innings pitched this year. On one positive note Clay Hensleywas brought up yesterday from Portland and today he pitched one scoreless inning.
