Padres fall to 0-2 as bats remain relatively silent, defense not sharp as rare Manny Machado gaffe doubles runs allowed in Nick Martinez's career-high 7 innings
Not all that often has there been a collection of hitters at the top of one team’s lineup like Xander Bogaerts, Juan Soto and Manny Machado.And it will matter on a night like Friday, when a pitcher like Nick Martinez deserved better than he got from the defenders behind him and the hitters supposedly there to support him in what ended up being a 4-1 loss to the Rockies.“When you only score one, it doesn’t look good,” manager Bob Melvin said. “But I thought he pitched really well.
They have trailed almost the entirety of their two games, and they haven’t looked good doing it — that is, aside from their sharp pinstriped home uniforms Thursday and popping City Connect uniforms on Friday. Martinez had retired 10 of 11 batters when Rockies No. 9 hitter Ezequiel Tovar led off the fifth inning with a single. Martinez then got two outs before Blackmon hit a fastball, which was up in the zone but not far enough, over the wall in right field to make it 4-0.
