Tommy struggled again with his location which has led to a lot of balls being hit hard, but he was able to do some damage control in the early innings and get out of early trouble. Once he settled down, the offense exploded for 4 runs and it seemed like a 4-2 lead would be too much for the Pads to overcome.
Alas, the ever reliable Billy Wagner blew the save.
What I take from the loss is that even though it was difficult to put down; you have to lose games like this every once in while. Also we have to keep in mind that the Padres are the best team in the NL.
It's all about series wins, as Bobby would say, and tomorrow afternoon is a business mans special at 1. Let's close out the series and take our good play on the road.
