While You Were Drinking – 2017 Game 78 (ATL vs SD)

By

Sometimes things can get a little fuzzy after an evening at the pub. Here’s a friendly reminder of what you may have missed while you were drinking.

The Padres (32-46) scored more runs than the Atlanta Braves (37-40) last night at Petco Park, 7-4.

Luis Perdomo (3-4, 4.71) allowed four runs on seven hits and two walks in five and a third innings with four strikeouts. In the sixth inning, Ender Inciarte and Brandon Phillips scored on a Matt Kemp single, after a Matt Adams single to load the bases Tyler Flowers was hit by a pitch to score Nick Markakis, and Kemp scored on a ground out by Lane Adams.

Bartolo Colon (2-8, 8.14) gave up six runs on eight hits and three walks while striking out two in four innings. Cory Spangenberg doubled to drive in Manuel Margot and Hunter Renfroe in the first inning. Margot scored again in the third inning on Wil Myers‘ single and Myers scored on a single by Carlos Asuaje. In the fourth inning, Renfroe drove in Margot and Myers with the first triple of his Major League career. With the bases loaded in the seventh inning, Erick Aybar scored on Allen Cordoba‘s ground out.

Tonight’s series finale has Dinelson Lamet (2-2, 6.60) taking the mound against Jaime Garcia (2-5, 4.03) starting at 6:10pm PDT.
