September 5, 2023 (San Diego) - After being dropped on Labor Day, more bad news awaited the Padres: they got to face the Phillies’ no-hitter owner, Michael Lorenzen, today. Fun. Pedro Avila started.
Lorenzen was dealing until the fourth when Fernando Tatis Jr. destroyed a ball to deep left and Luis Campusano doubled. One run scored on the fielder’s choice double and another on an error and the Padres led 3-0 after four.
Xander Bogaerts singled in the sixth to score Tatis Jr. and Campusano singled to score two. Bogaerts scored and the Padres extended their lead to 7-0 after six.
Matt Carpenter hit a sac fly to score Bogaerts in the eighth and the Padres rebounded nicely with an 8-0 win.
