Desmond's third career slam gave Chatwood more than enough breathing room. The Rockies' right-hander pitched eight innings of one-run ball, allowing four hits and striking out eight. Chatwood even got in on the fun offensively, sparking rallies in the fifth and the eighth with a double and a single, respectively.
Facing his former club for the first time, Padres righty Jhoulys Chacin allowed four runs (three earned) while striking out seven over six innings. In four previous starts at Petco Park this season, Chacin had allowed two runs combined
MOMENTS THAT MATTERED
Nolan keeps rollin': Chacin and Arenado spent two seasons as teammates with the Rockies, and they faced each other for the first time Saturday.
