Luke Voit drives in five runs, Padres score biggest comeback victory of the season
They struggled at the plate for half the game, then started hitting. That was the part anyone who watches them regularly should have become accustomed to by now.
Down 5-0 heading into the sixth inning, the Padres — who hadn’t overcome a deficit larger than three runs in a victory this season — scored four runs in the sixth and six more in the seventh to post their sixth victory in the last eight games.“Obviously, we’re not scoring a lot of runs,” said Nomar Mazara, who drove in three runs."… Every at-bat, we never give up, we never put our head down. And we got it rolling. It was huge, that W.
The Padres had three hits when Jake Cronenworth led off the sixth inning with a double. That hit chased Cubs starter Kyle Hendricks, who to that point had not yielded a run to the Padres in 13 2/3 innings this season. Hendricks, who was pitching for the first time since June 1 because of a bout with shoulder fatigue, was removed having thrown just 78 pitches.
“Once that first guy gets a hit off the bullpen guy,” Cronenworth said, “everybody just kind of feeds off that.”Voit’s seventh home run of the season made it 5-2 with one out in the sixth against Chris Martin, who would yield a single to Eric Hosmer, throw a wild pitch that allowed Hosmer to scamper to second and then have Mazara’s two-out single drive in Hosmer.
The six runs in the seventh inning were the Padres’ second most in an inning this season, behind the eight they scored April 26 in Cincinnati. The 10 runs in successive innings comprised their highest two-inning total.
