Slugger’s two-run shot in bottom of ninth comes after San Diego’s bullpen blows a 5-run lead in the top half
Manny Machado is doused in Gatorade after his walk-off home run against the Diamondbacks. With a little more than three weeks left until the trade deadline, General Manager A.J. Preller is sure to be shopping for pitching.
Alek Thomas hit Suarez’s first pitch to right field, a grand slam that cut the Padres’ lead to a single run. He struck out six batters, including two after Joc Pederson led off the sixth inning with a leadoff single and one more to boot to start the seventh as Shildt asked the bullpen to protect a five-run lead.
Given all the support he had in Boston, Vásquez was on his way to a win for himself in his last start when a comebacker off his right elbow knocked him from the game after four innings of one-run ball.Just a lot of pain and swelling at first, enough for the Padres to push his start back a day to Friday.
