San Diego PadresvsBaltimore Orioles
SD 3/BAL 7
Things to say
Orioles beat the Padres 7-3 at Camden Yards.
01
opener
Yeah, O's took care of the Padres 7-3 last night. Camden was rocking. San Diego just couldn't string anything together after the middle innings.
02
key player
Baltimore's bats finally woke up in the heart of the order, and once they got into San Diego's starter, it was over.
03
hot take
Padres manager went to the pen way too early. You've got a guy cruising, let him work through it.
04
deep cut
Orioles are still under .500 at 34-37 and they're beating a winning club at home. Tells you something about this Padres road trip.
05
exit
Anyway, getaway day tomorrow, we'll see if San Diego can salvage one before they fly out.
The recap
Orioles took care of business at Camden, knocking off the Padres 7-3 to snap a little skid and climb back toward .500. San Diego's staff couldn't keep the heart of the order quiet, and once Baltimore got into their stuff the bullpen door swung open way too early.
Padres bats went cold after an early nibble, and three runs just isn't going to cut it on the road. Quiet getaway-day vibes in Charm City, but the Birds will take the W any way it comes.
