Ah, savor the flavor. Scoring five runs and winning for the first time since July 19. Winning a series for the first time since the same date. And beating the Padres - whom I was assured we would be trailing in the standings by the end of today. It was made all the more satisfying by the come from behind nature, with Arizona three runs down before they even stepped to the plate. Brandon Pfaadt steadied the ship and, though he did not figure in the eventual decision (so is still seeking his first career win, after 11 starts), he did record a career high for strikeouts (below).
