Not only did the Padres lose, but they were shut down by their former top prospect.
The Padres enigmatic season took another odd and discouraging turn on Sunday afternoon. Not only did they lose a series at home to the Nationals, the team with the worst record in the National League, but they were shut down by their former top prospect and basically gave the game away late with some inexplicable errors in an 8-3 blowout loss.
The 7th inning was all kinds of weird for Hill. After Manny Machado made a fabulous play to snag a liner from Dominic Smith off his shoelaces for the 1st out, Derek Hill bunted right back to Tim, who fielded it cleanly up the 1st base line and made a terrible throw to pull Jake Cronenworth off the bag. The throwing error was the start of a very, very bad day.
Hill remained in the game to face Jeimer Candelario, who sent a 2-run double to left-centerfield to put it out of reach. Hill's miscues led to five runs in the inning, all unearned, capping a bad week for San Diego's bullpen. But, the relievers were certainly not all to blame. The Padres offense was abysmal again.
